Color Wheel Wednesday | Rust & Mint

10/11/2012 by Jennifer 5 Comments

Last fall, I tried unsuccessfully to turn mint into one of my “autumn colors”. It was too summery and bright though and I think I only wore it once. But this time, my love for mint will stand still. I plan to pair it with a deep, autumny rust :) I’m so in love with this color combination.

(clockwise) one, two, three, four

By “mint”, I mean anything in the light blue/green arena, and by “rust”, I mean reddish, orangeish, brownish wonderfulness. There is a fuzzy line with those colors.

What do you like pairing mint and/or rust with?

    I love the yarn combinations. I like the mint color. I think it can work for all seasons.
