Orange

From Wiki:

The colour orange occurs between red and yellow in the visible spectrum at a wavelength of about 585 – 620 nm, and has a hue of 30° in HSV colour space. The complementary colour of orange is azure, a slightly greenish blue. With pigments such as paints or inks, a mixture of the subtractive primary colours in the proportion of 75% yellow and 25% magenta produce the secondary colour orange. Orange pigments are largely in the ochre or cadmium families, and absorb mostly blue light.

Aren't you glad you know that???
I'm sure you can find ways to slip that information into "casual" conversation!

Love, Laughter, Peace, Blessings and ORANGE!!

Lovers of Orange (the color not the fruit) Unite!!!

I loooooove the color orange!
I am extremely fond of bright colors in general.
But my absolute favorite color is orange.
I once painted my bedroom orange. I loved it!
Others thought I had a problem.

Unfortunately, like many women, I use black as a background or basic wardrobe color so often times I look like I'm dressed for Halloween!
Good thing I love Halloween!

Anyhoo...this blog is dedicated to the color Orange. Seriously.
There is no telling what I might post but it will definitely have something to do with orange.
I might put up songs or poems or ....oh, anything.
I will definitely be putting up pictures of item that can be purchased in orange or some shade of orange.
I know, I am always on the look out for something fabulous in a shade of orange.
Glasses, dresses, shoes, shirts, hats, nail polish, electronic gadgets, household funishings, etc.
If it's orange, I will at least look at it.

Here's a little information that I got from About.com about the color orange:

Flamboyant and Energetic :
Orange is vibrant. It's a combination of red and yellow so it shares some common attributes with those colors. It denotes energy, warmth, and the sun. But orange has a bit less intensity or aggression than red, calmed by the cheerfulness of yellow.

Nature of Orange:
As a warm color orange is a stimulant — stimulating the emotions and even the appetite. Orange can be found in nature in the changing leaves of fall, the setting sun, and the skin and meat of citrus fruit.

Culture of Orange:
Orange brings up images of autumn leaves, pumpkins, and (in combination with Black) Halloween. It represents the changing seasons so in that sense it is a color on the edge, the color of change between the heat of summer and the cool of winter.
Because orange is also a citrus color, it can conjure up thoughts of vitamin C and good health.



Using Orange:
If you want to get noticed without screaming, consider the color orange — it demands attention. The softer oranges such as peach are even friendlier, more soothing. Peachy oranges are less flamboyant than their redder cousins but still energetic.
In keeping with its transitional appearance in nature, you might use shades of orange to indicate transition or a bridge between two opposing factors.

Orange is often synonymous with autumn yet the brighter oranges are a summer color. Use shades of orange for seasonal-themed fall or summer materials.
Orange is mentally stimulating as well as sociable. Use it to get people thinking or to get them talking.

Using Orange with Other Colors:
While orange and black are traditional Halloween colors, orange really pops with a medium blue. Red, yellow, and orange can be a fiery hot combination or, in tamer shades, a fresh, fruity experience. Make it tropical with green.
Use caution mixing orange and pink unless you want to recreate a vibrating, 60s psychedelic look.

Try a dash of orange with deep purple or a dash of purple with a bit of orange, tempered by lots of mellow yellow or white for an eye-catching look that's not overpowering.



Orange Color Palettes:
These color palettes feature shades of orange going earthy with browns and greens as well as sophisticated with blues, grays, and other neutrals.

Feng Shui Use of the Color Orange:
Feng Shui-wise, Orange represents the Fire element and it is best in the following feng shui Ba-Gua areas: South (Fame & Reputation) and Southwest (Love & Marriage). Avoid a predominant Orange-theme in the feng shui areas of West and Northwest, as they are governed by the Metal element, and Fire melts the Metal in the feng shui cycle of five elements.

The other two feng shui areas to avoid a strong presence of Orange color are East and Southeast, as both are governed by the element of Wood, and Fire burns the Wood in the interplay of five elements.

The vibrant and happy Orange color is an excellent feng shui choice for the living room, dining/kitchen, children's play area or anywhere in your space where you want to have a playful, lively and pulsating energy. Usually, it is easier to bring it with feng shui decor accessories or one feature wall, rather than a full room color.

The softness and warmth of Orange makes it a feng shui color easy to live with. At sunsets the light in Orange-themed rooms becomes beautifully golden and a nurturing feeling to remember.
