This group is dedicated to palettes that use one word as the beginning word for all the colors in the palette. Come here to share your palettes of this nature, see others' palettes, and to find inspiration and some challenges. Enjoy!
TBW Challenges!
Challenge #1 - NAME Your Palette
The first challenge goes by the title of NAME Your Palette. Why the capital letters, you ask? It's because these palettes will use your name as the keyword. Just search for your name, and find some colors that you like that use your name in the color's name. Here's my example:

If you're having trouble finding your name in colors, try using a word from your username, a nickname, or any other creative detour you can think of.
Post your palettes here.
I look forward to seeing your palettes! Enjoy. ;D
Challenge #2 - Feed Your Head
Our next challenge is food-based. We've all got a favorite food, sometimes even a few. Let us know what your favorite food is by creating a palette based around it! Just search the name of the dish (or a word from it if you're having trouble) and create a palette based around that. You can do desserts, main dishes, drinks- anything you like! Here are a few examples:

Everyone's palettes last time were great. I look forward to seeing your new ones!
Challenge #2 - Feed Your Head
This week, your challenge is to create a palette based around the movies. But not just any movie- your favorite(s)! Show us your cinema tastes with a palette or two dedicated to your favorite movie. It can be based around the name, the characters, or even the theme or plot. Here's an example:

You guys have made some great palettes so far. Keep up the good work!
Challenge #4 - Music Makes You Lose Control
This time around, your challenge is based on the theme of music. Pick a band, singer, song, or even album cover you like and make a palette out of it. Show your love for the song that never leaves your head or the band member you aspire to be. Here are a few examples:

Everyone's palettes have been lovely. I can't wait to see yours this time around!
Challenge #5 - Taste of Summer
Summer is almost here, and I know I can't wait! This challenge is to show us your yearning for summer. It's just around the corner- what are you going to do? Let us know your favorite part of summer, your plans, where you go- anything about your summer. Here's an example:

Post your palettes here.
I'm so sorry I didn't post a new challenge last week. I was busy and sidetracked. I'll try to be better in the future. Thank you for sticking with me and I can't wait to see some new palettes!


Basically, every week on Monday I'll post a new theme, and you can create a TBW palette based on that theme. Feel free to interpret the theme however you like and to make more than one palette.
When a new challenge is introduced, I'll make a new thread where you can post all of your entries. Check this thread for updates on the new challenges and a link to the current thread.
I welcome your feedback on this new idea and any ideas you have for future challenges.
I'm hoping that this will jump start the group and our palette-making. I look forward to seeing your palettes!
