Fab Freebie: Getting ‘Toned

***This giveaway is now closed – see who won below!***

And the lucky winner of some Pantone-tastic paint is… Gretchen (who’s really into “robin’s egg blue with a few pops of tangerine”). Congrats!

Y’all have heard of a little thing called Pantone, right? Well the folks who declared Emerald the color of the year have a slew of color experts who have also inspired a line of paint. And our bloggy friend/decorative painter Kristen clued us into MyColor inspired by Pantone – which is a series of project-sized paints for furniture, accessories, walls and beyond. In addition to the cool clear packaging, these quarts of eggshell paint (which are sold online and at Lowe’s) are ultra low VOC, stain blocking, and self priming. And one of you is gonna get EIGHT quarts in any of their 49 paint colors!

    My upstairs bedrooms haven’t been painted since we moved in (fuchsia and black trim). We could use some paint!!

    Pantone Me!

    And my color this year is yellow – BRIGHT yellow. I want to wear a bright yellow top, earrings or shoes every single day. It just screams sunshine and life to me.

    PANTONE ME! I would have to say pink. Since we found out our second was a girl, everything just turned pink in our house.

    Always love Raspberry. Lately I’ve been wanting to paint my coffee table and I’m loving Pantone’s Fuchsia Pink!

    PANTONE ME! Orange, coral red/orange, and yellow. They’re all over my house. I’m getting ready to “sew” (iron-on tape) orange velvet curtains for my office.

    PANTONE ME. My color of the year is always a shade of purple. But shades of yellow now are in 2nd place because it’s my fiance’s favorite color.

    My husband recently pointed out that the last three shirts I bought have been some version of a bird print. Is, uh, “bird print” a color? Does Pantone make a “bird print” paint color? I’d buy it!

    PANTONE ME!!! Ack – anything BUT emerald green, as that’s the original color of the nasty carpet ALL OVER the basement in our new house. It’s not pretty.

    PANTONE ME! I think my color would be navy. I use it almost like a neutral because it really seems to go with everything!

    PANTONE ME!!! I have been loving a soft blue lately. This year I would have to say I’m moving further from neutrals and into bright pops of colors. I have been slowly incorparating things that pop into my design lately.

    PANTONE ME! My color of the year is most definitely blue. My new-to-us house has become increasingly decked out in various shades of blue from blue-gray to navy to robins egg blue and aqua.

    For some reason I am digging bright sunny yellow, especially paired with white. Just painted our laundry cabinet in those two. :D

    The color of the year would be grey — first, because I’m planning on painting my living/dining room grey, and secondly, because it’s been grey here for days with just an occasional sunny day.

    I would say Turquoise. But it isn’t the color of the year, it is the color of every year. I just can’t get over it!

    I am so attracted to “Turquoise”. My husband says I always purchase clothes and accessories in this color. And….he’s right!
