Colorful stories:
Cornflower is a color of commitment. It is so light that you had to plan ahead to make sure that there was a clean place for it. And it seemed that no matter how hard you pressed, it always came out too light.

As a little girl I liked to draw flowers and since the crayon's name was "cornflower" I thought it was perfect for flowers.

Blue has always been my favorite color. It looks good on me when I wear it, although vibrant shades of blue suit me best. This color blue brings to me a calming feeling - I love to look at the blue sky dotted with pretty white clouds.
