I am taking an Introduction to Advertising course, and one of my first assignments is to think up a creative brief for the Miracle-Gro brand. Your article has provided me some additional ammo for my presentation. Cheers from St. Albans! Thanks for posting this, Andrea!

The colors were all super cutesy and not color names I would recognize from, say, a color wheel. I guess women must make the decisions on paint colors but it seemed a bit over-the-top. Do women really prefer color names that seem both pretentious (having to do with a shade of white that had a very sort of faux upper-class sounding name, I forget what it was) to flat-out cutesy. I mean so cutesy as to make me and the woman who was showing it to me laugh out loud. Maybe she was laughing because I was laughing. Not sure.
