Struggling to choose colors for your projects? 🧶🎨 Paper crafts, Cricut projects, cards, knitting, crochet, home décor — it doesn’t matter what you make… choosing colors can feel overwhelming. The good news? It doesn’t have to be!
In today’s video, I’m sharing simple, foolproof ways to pick color combinations that always look good — without understanding color theory. These are the same shortcuts, recipes, and tricks I use in my studio every day.
Whether you’re a crafter, a painter, a knitter, or you just want your projects to look more polished and intentional… this workshop will help you feel confident choosing colors you LOVE.
✨ WHAT YOU’LL LEARN TODAY:
• Easy “color recipes” that work every time
• How to mix neutrals with your favorite colors
• Tricks for choosing colors that feel calm, bold, vintage, festive — YOU decide!
• How to use things you adore (yes, really!) to inspire a palette
• How to build a color palette around ONE color you already love
• And how to stop second-guessing your choices!

Beautiful shoes, Jennifer!! I use to love to see the first snow fall when I lived in the UK, I think it makes everything look and feel so peaceful. Your video is so special, I loved to see the wild life, you and and Butterscotch enjoying the snow. I loved that Butterscotch joined in with us towards the end of your video. It is so good to see you looking so well and that you are able to make these videos, I could see that you were tired at the end of this video, take care and thank you for everything you do for us Jennifer and Greg..
