Our Colour meanings

Colours Affect us all whether we are aware of it or not,

we all have our favourites, AND some we like more than others.

and some we like not at all.

from what shirt we put on in the morning,

to the flowers we buy, WHAT COLOURS WE CHOOSE TO decorate our homes WITH, the colours WE CHOOSE TO SURROUND OUR SELVES WITH.

Sometimes our colours are what we choose to project of ourselves into the world,

sometimes it’s about how we feel,

sometimes it’s what we hope to draw to ourselves.

Colours have many different meanings to MANY DIFFERENT people,

here is HOW WE ROLL.
