I’m always browned off when he comes to visit. He doesn’t like doing anything, and he hardly ever talks to anyone! Here’s the first of our white color idioms. When something is expensive or costly to upkeep but has no real purpose or benefit, it could be described as a white elephant. Color idioms cover a whole host of topics, and in particular, there are many ways to describe emotions using color. Describe someone as green with envy if you want to exaggerate how jealous they are.

But what they don’t realize is that the grass isn’t always greener on the other side. “Green thumb” Although previous studies have suggested various color–emotion associations, some associations have been controversial, particularly the association between blue and sadness. For example, the perceived intensity of sadness in facial stimuli displaying ambiguous emotion was higher when the stimuli were colored in blue ( Kato and Yamashita, 2016). Geometric patterns (e.g., circles, squares) drawn in blue tend to increase the sadness rating ( Hevner, 1935). These findings suggest a blue–sadness association. However, this association is not ubiquitous. Given color-in-context theory ( Elliot and Maier, 2012), color conveys different meanings depending on context; thus blue is not consistently associated with sadness. Indeed, according to ecological valence theory ( Palmer and Schloss, 2010), blue is a preferred color since it is associated with environmental objects (e.g., clear sky and clean water) which people like ( Palmer and Schloss, 2010; Yokosawa etal., 2016). Previous studies have also suggested blue is associated with positive emotions in some countries ( Adams and Osgood, 1973; Jonauskaite etal., 2020b; Kaya and Epps, 2004; Valdez and Mehrabian, 1994; Wexner, 1954). In addition, a recent study has suggested that gray is more strongly associated with sadness than blue ( Jonauskaite etal., 2020b). Therefore, it is unclear what colors are associated with sadness in human cognition. This garden used to look so beautiful when my mum lived here. She definitely had a green thumb. I wish I did too!
