Guys TYSM for 17 followers! My new goal is 25 and victoria_ella, I hope you don't mind if I copy your idea! Everyone, can you please comment on my ideal fall background? COLOR CHOICES: burnt coral, burnt orange, tan, sienna, saffron, moss, honey, copper, light beige brown, dark autumn gold, and lastly, very dark mahogany!!! If you don't know the colors, I think that it will pop up if you google it! Thank you!!!

First off, I love the names you give to the colors! That's exactly what I do too! I mean, after all, navy blue is not navy blue, it's midnight blue! And second of all, I think moss or autumn gold would be cool!

Wow, I feel so great inside! I think honey would look sweet and beautiful! (side note: For me, I usually keep the one everyone wanted in the color choices next year and then change all the other options. I kept this tradition for years!) ~ Victoria Ella
