Question

or else how would a simple one be created. since this is just a practice project

Answer 1

I don't fully understand what do You mean by "allow user to select color" so two i have two solutions for You.

First You can use the color dialog for color selection

ColorDialog colorDialog = new ColorDialog(); 
if ( colorDialog.ShowDialog() != DialogResult.Cancel )
{ 
   textBox.ForeColor = colorDialog.Color;
}

or get familiar with this sample ColorPicke Custome Control

Answer 2

The latest drop of the open source Extended WPF Toolkit project out on CodePlex includes a color picker. If you are using .NET 4.0 I would recommend giving it a try.
