In 2008, a few dozen folks each added names to color swatches that I provided. They creatively named the varied hues things like “greenhouse”, “whale song” and “brave women run in my family.” When the participants sent the color cards back to me, I chopped them up, mixed them up, and then poetically re-organized them into boxes of 8. Each recipient then received one of these boxes to keep.
