I burn joss papers for the new year celebration.
Write down your wish and burn... Sending them up to the heavens.
What's a new year without joss paper?

Dear readers, this is going to be a fabulous year!

Pantone Color Of The Year - Radiant Orchid






Radiant Orchid

2014 Pantone color of the year was announced.
One of my favorite colors - Lavender/orchid!



About the PANTONE Color of the Year
 
The color of the year selection requires careful consideration and, to arrive at the selection, Pantone quite literally combs the world looking for color influences. This can include the entertainment industry and films that are in production, traveling art collections, hot new artists, popular travel destinations and other socio-economic conditions. Influences may also stem from technology, availability of new textures and effects that impact color, and even upcoming sports events that capture worldwide attention.

For more than a decade, Pantone’s Color of the Year has influenced product development and purchasing decisions in multiple industries, including fashion, home and industrial design, as well as product packaging and graphic design.
