Well I chose these colours as I feel that the bright colours would attract people and it looks really nice to.I love colourful things a lot so that's why I chose to make my umbrella colourful rather than using just a few colours.

Choose design for umbrellas because colors remind me of raspberries and cream ice cream. Also have a space for advertisement for gain people attention when walk down the street.

My umbrella design features panels with a graphic of colorful ice cream cones alternating with panels that are a bright fuschia color. The ice cream design represents what Florean Fortescue's Ice Cream Parlour is, and the bright fuschia color is fun, summery, and will draw people in with its brightness.

I don't have many coloring pencils so it didn't turn out as good as I wanted but still *lol*
I used different colors to represent the different flavors of ice-cream and then I wrote FLOREAN in the umbrella in case witches and wizards flew above the store so they could see where the shop is. I would write them in white tho giving that the colors look kinda dark
Thank you Ivey for my lovely first Siggy <3

The umbrella is multicoloured. Each panel is either red, yellow, blue, and green. These colours were chosen because they are bright and will attract attention. Each different coloured panel has a different kind of ice cream on it, to represent Florean Fortescue's variety of ice cream flavours and combinations.

I chose the colours I did because I was thinking of a sharp contrast: like the type that sun makes with rain. And what's a sharper contrast in colours than red with green?

Most of us have a favorite ice cream flavor, whether it's chocolate, vanilla, or strawberry. My umbrella highlights those three, and adds the words "ice cream" to each.

(Image flashes an umbrella with stripes of light blue and a sunburst that turns into an umbrella with stripes of light purple and sprinkles)
I wanted something bright that would attract attention which is why i wanted something to do with the sun, but to draw attention to the ice cream i decided to make it a flashing umbrella that then also had sprinkles on it since i love putting sprinkles on my ice cream!

Umbrella's eight wedges are colored lavender, blue, lavender, yellow, lavender, green, lavender and red. Lavender color is inspired by its calmness and association with pleasant smells. Even some lavender-made sweets can be pretty tasty. Red, blue, green and yellow colors symbolize "main" flavors commonly found in ice-cream and other sweet delight, as well as represent Hogwarts houses.

The umbrellas need to be light, fun and cheery, so I chose colors that match that description to me. They also have a light spinning charm placed on them so they slowly spin when customers are sitting at the table the umbrellas are at.
