On this cold, icy morning in North Carolina, I thought I’d send along something to look forward to in 2011! Pantone has announced it’s Color of the Year for 2011….Honeysuckle!

Here’s what Pantone has to say…

Courageous. Confident. Vital. A brave new color, for a brave new world. Let the bold spirit of Honeysuckle infuse you, life you and carry you through the year. It’s a color for every day — with nothing “everyday” about it.

Pantone is a leader in color forecasting and is the go-to source for many industries, including fashion and home interiors. 2010’s color was turquoise (see blog post here) and did you notice how this beautiful color somehow made its way into your wardrobe?

Think of how you can creatively add a splash of this “dynamic reddish pink” to your life in 2011! Pantone says, “It elevates our psyche beyond escape, instilling the confidence, courage and spirit to meet the exhaustive challenges that have become part of everyday life.”

Be happy…Vicky
