Pantone has crowned Honeysuckle as thee color for 2011.

Pantone Colour Institute Executive Director Leatrice Eiseman says,

"In times of stress, we need something to lift our spirits.

Honeysuckle is a captivating, stimulating colour that gets the adrenaline going, perfect to ward off the blues."

Here are some examples of the color as seen in fashion, makeup, weddings, accessories, interior design, and appliances for the home.

What do you think of the color?

I found lots of very pretty photos highlighting the use of Honeysuckle

which I will share with you in my next post.

Until then... it looks like the lady on the hammock in my blog header is resting her head on a pillow in the perfect shade of Honeysuckle.

Sweet dreams!
