Thank you all for the assistance. It is greatly appreciated. All tubs are now
labelled and I can sort at the end of their art sessions.

I recently bought a few different colours for the kids to play with, but in their
haste they opened all the bags and sorted them into containers before I could
label them. Most of the colours seem straight forward but there are some I have
difficulty distinguishing between. Is there an app that I can check each colour
individually, or would someone be able to identify each of the colours for me?
Can provide better photos if needed.

  This depends on the parts you’d like to use and your budget.

Parts were either 1 x 1 tiles, 1 x 1 plates or 1 x 1 plate rounds, whatever was
easier to source honestly.

  Most of these recommendations can be found in 1x1 plate (3024) form. You may
run into trouble attempting to find a decent match for 1115, but standard Red
is the closest thing I can think of. LEGO doesn’t have a Primrose color.

Easy, thank you.

As for the White Glitter I think Light Aqua is a better colour match. It's
just a shade colour for the white and wanted something to differentiate the two
colours without going to a hard grey.

Howdy, first time poster, short time reader.

I am looking for assistance in identifying appropriate colours for a mosaic I
have made. It's come from a cross stitch pattern I originally created for
my Nanna but she passed today, so wish to replicate it in Lego bricks to give
to one of the grand daughters to make with me. I have managed to narrow it down
to 16 colours (originally it was 71) with the quantity required for each. The
pattern is 80 x 80 (5 x 5 Lego Art Mosaic tiles).

The ones I am struggling with are in the following quantities:
39
1115
627
94

For the others I have:
121 - White
795 - Bright Reddish Violet
230 - Light Purple
94 - White Glitter
913 - Nougat
223 - Dark Orange
623 - Light Nougat
774 - Reddish Brown
367 - Cool Yellow
276 - Dark Brown
68 - Earth Green
41 - Light Blue

These are subjective; if you know of a colour that fits better I am open to it.
Any assistance is welcomed as I am somewhat out of my depth.
