Pantone Color Of The Year 2015 - Marsala





I must say it is not one of my favorite colors,

but here goes Marsala. 
It is Pantone's color of the year.





Pantone Color Of The Year - Marsala

Much like the fortified wine that gives Marsala its name, this tasteful hue embodies the satisfying richness of a fulfilling meal while its grounding red-brown roots emanate a sophisticated, natural earthiness. This hearty, yet stylish tone is universally appealing and translates easily to fashion, beauty, industrial design, home furnishings and interiors.

The Versatility of Marsala

Equally appealing to men and women, Marsala is a stirring and flavorful shade for apparel and accessories, one that encourages color creativity and experimentation
Flattering against many skin tones, sultry and subtle Marsala is a great go-to color for beauty, providing enormous highlight for the cheek, and a captivating pop of color for nails, shadows lips and hair.
Dramatic and at the same time grounding, the rich and full-bodied red-brown Marsala brings color warmth into home interiors
An earthy shade with a bit of sophistication, texture is the story in print and packaging. A matte finish highlights Marsala’s organic nature while adding a sheen conveys a completely different message of glamour and luxury. 







Here it looks pretty good!






The leather sofa matches the wall exactly.

Verde Envy






Green is one of my favorite colors.
Could be because I have red hair.
My mom was a red head and I inherited it.
Enjoy!

My favorite paint color- Parchment





My favorite color to use in clients home & mine has got to be Parchment.

It has great depth & believe it or not, dear readers, this Parchment changes colors- 
sometimes looking lavender, pinkish or greenish.
It is fabulous!
I use it in eggshell finish, easy to wipe clean.

Parchment(724) is made by ICI, now I think you can get it at Glidden paints.


This is my living room.


BRASWELL the shop with Parchment.


I think it looks soft & lovely here.




A client's living room.


Up the stairs is Parchment.




Another client's living room.


As you can see, I adore Parchment, it is ethereal!
Tell me your favorite paint color.



Love, Peggy
