Lucky's Palette | Colour and Style

Colour palette and teddy bear style

Lucky's palette looks at how colour creates the first feeling of a bear. Fabric colour, eye colour, thread and accessories should support one mood.

Choose a mood first: Soft, classic, playful, antique and storybook bears need different colour decisions.

Limit the palette: Too many colours can weaken the character.

Test beside the fabric: Place eyes, thread and ribbon on the actual fabric before deciding.

Harmony

Colours should feel like they belong together.

Contrast

Small contrast can help the face appear clearly.

Signature style

Repeated choices slowly become a maker's voice.

A Small Note From Teddy Castle

Colour is not decoration only. It is one of the first ways a bear tells its story.

Every Teddy Has A Story.
