Color Palette - Coleus Fall Colors

Show of hands, who isn’t amazed by Coleus? It is weird, infinitely varied, fast growing, and hardy. What’s not to love?

Coleus flowers are thought to help calm the mind and promote peaceful thoughts. They are said to bring good luck and are used in meditation settings.

I’m sure you can agree they are captivating. Spending time admiring or studying them, or just observing their color and pattern takes your mind from its worries.


The purple coleus above really caught my eye this year. The combination with the multiple greens and red browns nearby creates a perfect unique fall palette. I explored these colors in a few of my patterns and I believe this palette to be a keeper : )

I’m including the .ASE color swatch file here for anyone who signs in to my newsletter. Once you download the palette file, check this post for a quick video tutorial on uploading colors to your favorite design software, Blog Fall Color 2024 Download.
