Honeysuckle ~ Pantone 2011 Color of the Year

Stop the show! Pantone just announced Honeysuckle as the 2011 Color of the Year.

As you can see in my watercolor paintings, it is one of my favorites. Here are some decorating ideas for your room when choosing Honeysuckle for your paint color.

“In times of stress, we need something to lift our spirits. Honeysuckle is a captivating, stimulating color that gets the adrenaline going – perfect to ward off the blues,” explains Leatrice Eiseman, executive director of the Pantone Color Institute®. “Honeysuckle derives its positive qualities from a powerful bond to its mother color red, the most physical, viscerally alive hue in the spectrum.”
