Pantone's Color of the Year: Honeysuckle
Comments (50)Binsd, it always amazes me that people would actually buy a color just because it's in style. Well, I guess I'm in style then! Below is a nice size basket I received as a Christmas gift, and I had planned on leaving it out all year when I find the right spot. It has one handle so it's meant to be hung on a wall. My guest bath has a lot of pink in it, so this will look nice with a few hand towels inside the basket. Yes, I realize it has a Christmas theme, but I don't care! Oh, my Honeysuckle is cream also....See MoreBreaking News. Pantone Color of the Year 2015 is...
Comments (95)That is just skin folding, not fat. I recently watched a "fashion makeover" segment on a morning news show (I was captive--it was in a doctor's office waiting room), and a pretty but very overweight woman was getting made over. They put her in an outfit like Selena's above and said the key was having the waist high enough, so that it above the lumpy fat parts. Okay, they didn't use exactly those words, but you get the idea. The message was everyone can wear the exposed midriff style. Sheesh. So, yes, some are trendy no matter what the trend. Call me an old fogey, I guess. Okay, back on topic. My house has has a shade of burgundy that splits the difference between burgundy and plum and a moss green that runs throughout, except bedrooms and laundry/mud rooms. Other stuff is sprinkled in, but those run throughout the house. The floors are light reclaimed wood, but I think darker floors might actually be more appropriate from an interior design standpoint. However, it's a Texas Hill Country house and the pine is appropriate to the genre. So, I'm on board with Marsala, unless it's the browner version....See MorePantone color of the year 2017
Comments (40)I translated a Russian folk tale (from Russian and German) to English, and I find the Russian style of design very appropriate for folk and fairy tales, but it's a bit much to live with. It's one thing to spend a day a the The Hermitage, but it would be something else to live with it, I think. I'm not a fan of Baroque, whether it is French, German, or Russian, although I do like Italian Baroque - particularly Borromini and Bernini. I'm okay with loud, but I'm not okay with loud and too much. For my own house, I prefer an uncluttered look - otherwise I get dizzy and my energy get sapped by not knowing where to look. I especially like the minimalist architecture of Latin America, and that can be a bit loud regarding the colors, but it is also serene, at least to me. Even a bright somewhat lime green can be serene for me, if use properly....See MoreInterior Designers: Does Pantones Color of the Year matter to you?
