I am seeing now the conflict I had within myself on the harvest green...yes, I agree that springmoss matches the dark harvest but I am thinking on terms of the harvest green smock top.. any thoughts on it? Bets Jen's Reply: Sorry, but I will not be able to make it to the store again for a week or two to review this line. My original post above has my best matches, but I'd be happy to double-check them the next time I'm there! -Jen Copied your comment to this post, Bets, since it pertains to the colors in this line:

The clip will make a very pretty bow center, for sure. And I agree that using the best color match for most of the bow, and limiting the usage of an iffy match is a smart approach. I haven't designed anything to match this line yet (and don't really anticipate that I will) so I can't wait to see what you come up with. I do like the collection, even if it is difficult to match! Thanks for your input. Great, I can’t wait to see it, Bets! The clip will make a very pretty bow center, for sure.

Not seafoam but a muted shade of mint, prehaps is the best word. But I plan on using the clip in my center so that was why I purchased it.. Personally I couldnt afford a pc of the collection,which would have made it better that is sure.. I am thinking of the cameo color, which is a mauvy shade does match to a tee and will be the one that I focus on with adding just a touch of the green in the bow. But we shall see how it turns out. will post on my website when completed Well, I went into the store today and truly didnt look as closely as prehaps i should have, but I will say the clips are not mint.

Are you matching only to the clippies, or to the whole line? I must admit I didn't pay a whole lot of attention to the clippies when I was in the store, but online they look a bit more minty than the green in the clothing pieces. I would just caution that factory made accessories (even same brand/same line) are often not a perfect match for the colors in the clothing pieces. I usually try to standardize on colors in the tops, as they will be closest to the hair accessories, and there can be a fair amount of color discrepancy even within a line. I'd love to know your method for matching! -Jen Thanks for sharing your info, Bets! Are you matching only to the clippies, or to the whole line?

Not even sure about the soda fountain line either..
