I usually just throw some together and make something, or I think about a collection I could do, and start. I've been doing a series of broken ladder bracelets and just bought a huge haul of pastel colors. I just think about what might look nice together.

blues and greens have lots of shades but they usually go great together

you should use complementary colors, so purple and yellow, green and red, blue and orange.

also, dont mix warm and cool colors. make a bracelet with warm colors (yellow, orange, and red, sometimes pink) or cool colors (blue, purple, green), but dont mix warm and cool colors (unless the two colors you pick look really cool together)

I can never find colors that look good together. I am so bad at it.

Unless its pink gray and blue. I always use those colors together I think they look really nice with some patterns.

also, pretty much any color combined with white and black works....depends on the pattern sometimes though

Now that I think of it, I use a lot of purple, green and blue together and I add different colors depending on the requirement of colors

I actually like to use different shades of the same color from light to dark so it creates a faded effect lol but a good combination of colors I use a lot is pink, white, black, and sometimes brown if I need am extra color. If I have no idea what colors to use, I just pick a random color from my threadbox and throw some colors next to it that I think look good together 😄 if I'm just doing a practice or trial pattern, then I use any random color that I haven't used in a while. Colors that you haven't used in a while could surprisingly look pretty good together. 😛

I love purple and bright blue, it's a beautiful duet. I also like the green with black. Aussi There are yellow, pink and blue, which is a beautiful triplet! There are lots of possibilities!

I usually try to use colours I haven't used a lot 🙂. With them I try to make sets of bracelets with the same colours 🙂. x. |

Err, I choose my colors from skeins I haven't opened yet, so I guess I could say that I choose random colors 😛

I typically pull out a colour I like and then place another beside it to see what looks good. But if you want to get technical you can't go wrong with colours on the opposite side of the colour wheel or colours side by side on the wheel.
