rainbow flames

Is this not the coolest thing you've ever seen? These colored-flame candles are from Rainbow Moments and are made from organic and inorganic salts and "safe" metals (instead of wax), which, when burned at high temperatures, gives off vibrant, colored flames. What a great idea to add a little fun to your next party!

Aside from birthday candles, Rainbow Moments also offers dinner candles (including a cool icicle shape), tea lights, and fluid lamps with colored flames, and taper candles that drip colored "wax."

To order from the site, you must be a retailer (or want hundreds of candles) so I'll be looking for these online and in stores. Let us know if you see them somewhere!

ultimate color wheel

I can't believe I forgot to include this in my top 5! However...that would have made it a top 6.

This IS the bee's knees (guest blog trivia! where did the saying "bee's knees" come from? 1st to post the correct answer wins!). Adobe's color wheel (FREE to use!) lets you view other ppl's creations by popularity, newest, tagged word index and even create your own palette! But that's not even the coolest part! It gives you the color schemes in RGB, CMYK, LAB and HEX! SWEET!
