We are also welcoming Tangerine Tango as the Pantone colour of the year…
Bright, cheerful, feel good color…exactly what I need right now.
What do you think of the trends? Is there one in particular you are attracted to?
On a side note, while it’s been a little gloomy around here and I haven’t had much desire to create, please know that I do miss this place and my interaction with you.
I’m not sure when I will speak to you again, but I sure hope it is soon.
Until then, please know that with all my heart, I wish you a beautiful New Year, filled with hope, fulfilled dreams and bright horizons.
sending you much love,
Lucy
I’m really loving Tangarine Tango. It’s a nice classy orange. I love it with light teal or Tiffany blue. Thanks for sharing all of the trends with us!
Lucy- What a nice little pop of color. My hubby’s grandmother had a lot of malachite in her home. I believe it is mined in the UP-at least I know they bring the cargo ships in and out with it.
I seem to be stuck on serene right now. There is always so much going on here that I crave the blandness of not too much color…maybe a pop here and there..and, of course, traditional Christmas colors here but, other than that, pretty much texture and not so much color.
Happy New Year to you, Lu. I hope it’s not too long before we see you again- You are missed when you aren’t here- xo Diana
I don’t think I could ever use reptile print in my home after nearly dying from a rattlesnake bite 2 years ago. I do like the tangerine though!
Oops I forgot to say that I do hope you are doing better. The holidays are so hard on us at times with helping with depression.
I was reminded too today in a sermon of the words of Jesus right before He knew He was going to go to Calvary- “Glorify your son Father so that Your son may glorify you” (John 17) Cancer is such a terrible thing- my family has experienced it also and yet, God can bring glory and honor to Himself with anything, even cancer- some how that thought made it more comforting to me as I saw my loved ones go through what they had to during those days. Know you are in the palm of His hand and He loves you-
Looks to be a stylishly bright new year. Funny, I had the same reference to “writing your story” today on my blog. I don’t think it’s coincidence. I think it’s just great minds thinking alike;-)
All will be better soon.
Anything in the orange family makes me smile! Also love the bright and bold emerald green colors – looks amazing paired with gold accents!
I adore Chinoiserie. I’m really happy with tangerine, too. It’s easier to work with than the pink they had last year.
Hola!!
Hoy vine a visitarte y a desearte…
FELIZ AÑO NUEVO!!!!!!!!!

I’m also doing programming. However, we also had hard days. I suffered a depression this year. Fortunately, it was simpler than I anticipated since I was able to find the right expert in these areas on a timely basis, but I think I can encourage you if I claim I could find him in online chat help for Calmerry issues. Some of these people are now there because the situation on our planet is complicated.
