* Splashes of vibrant teal and orange around a room with a neutral foundation. Use these colors in pillows, throws, drapery panels and accessories.


* Textures to soften a modern interior. Try using velvets, mohair, tweeds, and silks.

2011 Color of the Year

Pantone announced the new color for 2011 - Honeysuckle. Here is what Pantone says about it, "Courageous. Confident. Vital. A brave new color, for a brave new world. Let the bold spirit of honeysuckle infuse you, lift you and carry you through out the year. It's a color for every day - with nothing "everday" about it."

Pantone suggests using it in a entry way for an "upbeat & dynamic" look, or in a dining room it can be a "conversation stimulant". They also suggest using it on placemats & linens, or painting your knobs or drawer pulls this color. They warn that once you try this "arresting shade" that it can become addictive.
