Don't forget the white in the lettering.

Some beautiful ideas here. When you just list colors it made sound just awful, but just look at these beauties. Run with them!

If they're not "your" colors, make a gift for someone you know who does like them. Don't know anyone who likes them? Make a rag doll clown for next year's Toys for Tots drive.
