Spring will be bursting forth with Honeysuckle
|
Bursting with energy, the trend-setting color this Spring season is Honeysuckle. This bright red-pink color was chosen as the official 2011 color by the Pantone Color Institute®, which selects color standards for the fashion and home industries.
“In times of stress, we need something to lift our spirits. Honeysuckle is a captivating, stimulating color that gets the adrenaline going – perfect to ward off the blues,” said Leatrice Eiseman, executive director of the Institute.
While painting your walls with the shade may be too much for some, adding throw pillows, lively photographs and other home décor accents are a cheap and easy way to spruce up your home.

Honeysuckle is lively, hopeful, playful, and will work well for day and night in apparel, accessories, soaps, and jewelry. Eiseman says the color, "may also bring a wave of nostalgia reminiscent of the carefree days of spring and summer."
