There are signs of Spring already in Northern California. Our daffodils are pushing up shoots and rainbows are appearing as grey clouds come and go.
For those of you still under snow and freezes I hope this gives you hope!
It's time to see what colors Pantone has announced for this Spring!

Many seem to be sort of dusty with hues given more white to take them more to a pastel. I really like the Dusk Blue with Lemon Zest. I just bought a cell phone cover the color of Tender Shoots so that's obviously grabbing me. A purple is always in my palette so maybe African Violet with Lemon Zest or Tender Shoots will show up in some new earrings.
In my shops you'll find some of these colors that will go with the new colors you are seeing in the clothing boutiques.
Dusk Blue with Lemon Zest: Sun Spot
Linen: Seashell Heart
Poppy Red and Tender Shoots: Red Cherry Lip (SOLD)
Tender Shoots, Monaco Blue, Poppy Red: Flowers on my Mind
African Violet, Nectarine: Grape Sour Balls (SOLD)
Nectarine: Orange Juice
Lemon Zest: He Loves Me, He Loves Me Not
Dusk Blue, Lemon Zest, Nectarine, Linen: Shadows in the Rose Garden
Grayed Jade, Poppy Red: Sailor's Valentine
Poppy Red: Falling Leaves
What about you? What are your favorites in this new palette? I'll do a post or posts with handmade items that feature your selections!
