Pantone Fall 2018 Color Report

Going into Sept every year I always take a peek at the Pantone choices for fall colors.  I know the colors are announced a season ahead, which makes sense because of the timeline needed for creation and production, but I think it is fun to wait and look. 

I love this year!

Red pear, valiant poppy, nebulas blue, ceylon yellow, martini olive (yum!)

Russet orange, ultra violet, crocus petal, limelight, quetzal green

What is fun, without even looking at the fall colors until I wrote this post, I almost feel I am in tuned to what is going on this year, based on the color choices of my new tie dye shirt I made yesterday!!

I dont' think i was that far off do you??

More tie dye to come!

Thanks for stopping by, and remember - be peaceful, be kind it is important!!!

New Design - Lepidolite and amazonite necklace

According to The Insider, bold, large, chunky, statement making jewelry is where it's at this 2009 fall/winter season. I couldn't be happier! Granted what was seen on the run way is an over the top statement of what will be in stores this year. My style is just that, chunky necklaces that are the focal of the wardrobe, not the accent to the ensemble.

This morning over coffee and between chasing the dogs up and down the stairs and around the yard, I wanted to make one of those 'non seasonal committed' necklaces. I wanted a big fun necklace that will go great during any season and with any wardrobe. I think I did it.

Great colors of purples, grays, and sea foam greens accented with copper on a warm chocolaty hemp cord. Perfect for fall, creates happy thoughts during the winter, cheers on the spring and cools off the summer.

Yup - it's a keeper.
