Ringing in the New Year!

Sky full of fireworks with pink and purple color swatch boxes

Happy New Year from all of us here at Mance Creative!

DID YOU KNOW? Rather than get their bright colors from pigments like paint or “smoke bombs”, fireworks get their colors from CHEMISTRY! In addition to the chemicals necessary for their controlled explosions, fireworks contain specific metal salts that dictate the colors we see when they go off (like copper salts for blue, calcium salts for orange, and barium salts for green!)
