Crayola color garden - help me think : )
Comments (9)I don't think your plan is weird at all. The color scheme you describe is fairly close to what I've used in my subtropical bed (a.k.a. the Victor/Victorian Garden): My advice for any planting that concentrates on one or a few flower colors - toss in a splash of something different for variety and refreshment (I've had blues, a bit of white etc.). And don't worry about sticking to any orthodox set of colors or hues*; experiment boldly and Christopher Lloyd will be looking down with a smile on his face. As far as blue goes, I suggest massing enough to compete with the hot-colored plants, especially with paler blues. I like Caryopteris incana (an annual here) for late-season flowering. Tall old-fashioned ageratum is another idea. I have a couple other blue-flowered annuals planned for this year which I will be secretive about until I see how they work out. Good blue and purple-flowered Salvias to try in addition to S. guaranitica include S. 'Purple Majesty", S. 'Indigo Spires' and S. urica. Obviously, don't miss out on hot and cool foliage to complement your hot scheme (especially silver and chartreuse). *to drop another name - Marco Stufano, the former head of the botanical garden at Wave Hill, once commented that he didn't restrict himself on color choices in plants because he wanted the whole giant Crayola (box)....See Morea tail of 2 socks + 'knitting again'
Comments (1)Pawsitive, that sounds intriguing and a lovely way to combine two of your interests - your dogs and your knitting. Would it be possible to post photos of some of the garments you've knitted with dog hair?...See MoreCrayon Crayola Quilts
Comments (9)Different sites do give conflicting advice!!!!! I was told to use 100% cotton only and prewash fabric, let dry, and wet area to be painted with Aloe Vera. They are crayons not fabric markers. That is why I'm testing it, 'cause many said it will not wash out, but some reported it did. Aloe Vera is a clear gel (about $4) that you can find in the sun tanning area of the drug store. I pretreated the 100% cotton square last night, let it dry, colored it, and brushed it again with the Aloe Vera. It's cute but still looks like colored pages lol!!!! I need more colors I only have 24 and no pink LOL!!!! The quilt in the pic is more like Tole painting than coloring. Lots of different colors and shading. I pressed and let cool and pressed again until there was no more dye coming off. The Aloe Vera did make it look a little more intense and did not turn yellow after many pressings. So far it works well, now to see how it looks after washing. Rosa...See MoreThe whole Crayola box
Comments (27)Went to an estate sale over the weekend where gramma had the entire finished basement as play and craft space for the grandkids - filled with every vintage toy, game, book you could imagine. I walked out with these to send to 4 yr old DGD. Fluorescent crayons were never my thing but I do wonder what 'flesh tone' is in that big box. Since the set is dated 1989 I'm guessing a more forward thinking version. just to add..... she tested positive (as did mama and papa 2 days later) so of course she's checking George....See More
