What two colors for a wallet?

Post by Gerardo »

I'm gonna fold myself a new wallet. I will make my own sheet so I have the chance to combine any two colors. I want some ideas: which two colors would you choose if they were for your wallet? This is the model I use, so one color is shown a lot more than the other: Two Pocket Envelope.

Which would be your main and which your secondary color?

If you want, you can also let me know stuff like if you're (1) male or female or if you'd say you're (2) a child, teenager, young adult... I believe those are factors somewhat related with tastes in colors and combinations. So I would appreciate the info.

That's a very cool color combination origami_8; I also really like it for a wallet :).

How about the rest of you?

I don't carry a wallet, but I'd want one that's either light brown and black or black and red (practical colors and my favorite colors, respectively).

And I'm male and a teenager. (16, soon to be 17)

Baltorigamist, I suppose you're naming the main color first in both cases. Is that correct?

I think black is great because it complements basically every other color, but I agree with Román Díaz in Origami for Interpreters when he says that black conceals the folds in origami :).

Thanks for sharing!

C'mon guys, it's so easy to help out. Just tell me two colors and that's it! You don't have to tell me about your gender and stage if you don't want to.

Pleeeease :P.
