Experimenting with color can turn ordinary into extraordinary

Color is an important but ever-changing thing in the garden. For me, color is one of the finest draws to my hobbies of quilting and gardening. Color can change a mood. Color can make us smarter. Color can even increase or diminish lighting. Painting a northern, shady wall a bright white can actually reflect and give the plants that live there more light. Painting a dark entryway a bright color can both show visitors where to enter and say, “Welcome.”
