What color is your idiom?
Alan Kennedy's Color/Language Project aims to illustrate with colors idioms in different languages featuring allusions to colors.
You can view the idioms as a single page here.
Linguistic facts about color here.
It would be interesting to hear from synesthetes how they experience color-related idioms.

My idiom is a tofu shiritaki beige; not covered by this! :-) Go figure!
