It’s already 2017 (can you believe it?) and the ICYMI has recently named “Greenery” the official Color of the Year. What do you think of the new color? It seems to be catching on and making it’s way into beauty, fashion and into, my favorite area, home décor.
The director of the Pantone Color Institute, Leatrice Eiseman says,”The tangy yellow-green speaks to our desire to express, explore, experiment and reinvent, imparting a sense of buoyancy.” While I think it’s a fun color worthy of playing around with it’s not something I want to deck my house out in. I just got rid of a bathroom set and stove that had a very similar green color to them. Actually, come to think of it, our homeschool room/office already has carpet that’s this color. Does it still count as stylish if it’s from the 70s? Well, anyway, I’m here to share a few ways you can add a fun pop of color with Pantone’s new greenery. This post contains some affiliate links.

Tell me, do you embrace the new Pantone colors every year or only your favorites?

Jamberry just released their two newest wraps “Glittering Greenery” and “Garden Greenery”. I am obsessed with them and can’t wait to share them with my friends and customers. Ashley, if you haven’t had a chance to try Jamberry, I’d love to send you a sample too! Just let me know!

Oh thank you for the update, I’ll have to check them out. I’ve already tried out Jamberry so I wouldn’t feel right taking a sample. I appreciate the offer though! http://embracingbeauty.com/2014/10/17/nail-wraps-review-sally-hansen-jamberry-more/
