From Kate Pullen, your About Arts & Crafts Editor
I was looking at the golden fields gently rolling into the bright blue summer sky and thinking what great inspiration nature offers us when creating color schemes. However, sometimes when thinking about color for a future project a little extra help is required and this is where the theory of color comes in handy. This week I've picked some of our articles and tutorials that show how to make great use of color in your arts and crafts projects. Happy crafting! Kate
