Help with colors for Harry Potter scarfs

[LittleGreenStars]

I want to make some Harry Potter inspired scarfs and I need help with the colors.

 

I know one is maroon and gold, and another is hunter green and grey, but I don't know what the other two are.

 

I have a cousin who is going to collage in the fall and the school's colors are maroon and gold and she wants a "Harry Potter" scarf to take with her, and I'm going to make her a matching afghan. I thought it would be cool to make her younger brother and sisters the other scarfs to go with hers, what do you think?

Gryffindor - red and gold

Slytherin - silver and green

Hufflepuff- yellow and black

Ravenclaw - Blue and bronze

Thank you!!

 

 

 

Can anyone suggest and Red Heart color to use for the bronze?

 

And, is the blue and regular blue or a navy blue?

 

Can you tell I have NO idea! LOL!

 

Thanks!

The Red Heart Color I used in place of the bronze is called Cornmeal. Works perfectly

I don't know about the bronze, I suppose you could use a gold color for both the gold and bronze...I think a royal blue would look nice with the gold/bronze.

 

Here's some bookmarks showing the colors

How about "pumpkin"? Bronze is an orange-brown color.

Well, this is interesting. I kept looking on that Harry Potter Store website and found some scarves

But it shows Ravenclaw as blue and gray.

 

I got my original answer from the Harry Potter Lexicon--this page is better than the first one I looked at, it shows the colors and crests, which has the Ravenclaw in blue and gray with the raven in bronze.

Hmm.

Thanks! Blue and grey would be easier then trying to find the right color for bronze.

Here is the link to the cornmeal that is what I used for Ravenclaw:

I hate that they used blue and grey instead of the blue and bronze. I stayed to the books with the colors though.
