I guess what I'm saying is that everyone has a color they aren't crazy about... with me it's pink... but you don't really see people talking negatively about those colors so much. But brown gets bashed a LOT. I was thinking maybe it's because back in the 70's and 80's everyone got sick of those colors and now they're considered "old fashioned" or something. (Tell me you don't remember those god-awful harvest gold appliances and brown shag carpets! LOL!) But, as they say, everything old is new again... and with the new fabrics and new patterns I think brown is making a come back!
