Feeling C O L O R S
It's just time for our color of the week...
Color: Blue/Azul
Did you know? ...that.....
Blue is calming. It can be strong and steadfast or light and friendly. Almost everyone likes some shade of the color blue.
In 1999 Pantone named the sky blue color of Cerulean as the color of the new millennium. Pantone selected the color Blue Iris as the 2008 Color of the Year telling us: "Combining the stable and calming aspects of blue with the mystical and spiritual qualities of purple, Blue Iris satisfies the need for reassurance in a complex world, while adding a hint of mystery and excitement."
A natural color, from the blue of the sky, blue is a universal color. The cool, calming effect of blue makes time pass more quickly and it can help you sleep. Blue is a good color for bedrooms. However, too much blue could dampen spirits.
Some blue color names:
Baby Blue
Ball Blue
Beau Blue
Turquoise
Blizzard Blue
Capri
Cadet Blue
Cyan
Colombia Blue and like thousand more.......
Using Blue if you want to:
- calm and relaxation to counteract chaos or agitation
- to open the flow of communication
- to broaden your perspective in learning new information
- solitude and peace
-----Qucick note-------------
Use blue paper for notes when you want help in remembering a speech or other information!!!!
The blue color in my life......
