Do months look like colors to you? For example when someone says "March" does a certain color come to mind?
They do for me. And January is PURPLE. I think it's because PURPLE is my favorite color. And since my birthday is in January that makes January my month so that means that January has to be PURPLE because it is my month and my favorite color is PURPLE. Whew, that was a mouthful. Or perhaps my dedication of the color PURPLE to this month is from singing Prince's "PURPLE Rain" too many times. After all, there is a lot of rain in January. I picture January with PURPLE snowflakes, January written in fun PURPLE font, wearing PURPLE skirts, writing with a PURPLE pen and putting PURPLE sprinkles on cupcakes.
A few years ago I had a flocked Christmas tree and put all my purple ornaments on it. I have a pretty nice collection of gorgeous purple ornaments. It was the most beautiful tree I have ever seen. And it also let me cross one more thing off my "50 Things" list. I loved it so much that I left it up for the whole month of January. After all....it was purple!
What color is January for you? Perhaps its blue because its cold or it's white because it's icy?
Here is my Purple Mosiac to celebrate the month of January.

I love the collage, and I love the color purple (all shades). I hope you have a very purple-y January and Birthday.
What a fun post! I love the collage--the purple eye is really something, isn't it? Happy January to you, my friend!
Purple has always been my favorite color too. Remember my purple room with the purple canopy bed. I loved the collage too. Did you take all the pictures yourself? Or some of them?
Cool collage! I have to admit that I am not a purple girl, but there are a few shades of purple that I think are gorgeous, like periwinkle. Is that a shade of purple? I guess if I had to say what color January is for me it would be dark blue. I would say white, but I think of that for December. Dark blue reminds me of cold and the skies trurning dark earlier. Fun post and don't hate me for not loving purple!
Yes, periwinkle is in my opinion a shade of purple and I love it.
Quinn, I didn't take any of those pictures. I made the collage using pictures from Flickr.
I've always thought February was purple, but that's just me.
I love purple too. Happy purple month to you!
