Another method would be to look at a print fabric and pull those colors out. If you look at the colors I pulled for this year, they are pretty much colors that are in a leaf print I recently purchased.

A huge Thank You to peaceandjoy for your post. I LOVED your Easy Street. The reds are so rich and really unite the pattern. I also love the way you varied the colors in your choices for this year. I hope you don't mind but my stash really reflects your choices and is much more appealing to me SO, I have printed out a copy of that picture and will be using it as my jumping off point for my Friday stash selections. You have restored my joy in this year's BH mystery in one single post!
