Fab Freebie: Getting ‘Toned

***This giveaway is now closed – see who won below!***

And the lucky winner of some Pantone-tastic paint is… Gretchen (who’s really into “robin’s egg blue with a few pops of tangerine”). Congrats!

Y’all have heard of a little thing called Pantone, right? Well the folks who declared Emerald the color of the year have a slew of color experts who have also inspired a line of paint. And our bloggy friend/decorative painter Kristen clued us into MyColor inspired by Pantone – which is a series of project-sized paints for furniture, accessories, walls and beyond. In addition to the cool clear packaging, these quarts of eggshell paint (which are sold online and at Lowe’s) are ultra low VOC, stain blocking, and self priming. And one of you is gonna get EIGHT quarts in any of their 49 paint colors!

MyColorbyPantone Giveaway

  • PRIZE: Eight quarts of MyColor inspired by Pantone paints in any color (an $100 value)
  • TO ENTER: Comment on this post with the words “PANTONE ME” and tell us…
  • BONUS QUESTION: … if you had to declare a color of YOUR year, what would it be? Are you craving all things red lately (Sherry is)? Do all of your clothing purchases seem to be in the aqua family? Or are you right with the Pantone folks on emerald this year?
  • NUMBER OF WINNERS: One
  • PRIZE SHIPS: We always beg every vendor to ship internationally but some companies are not legally able to vend things beyond specific areas (more on that here). This giveaway is open to the United States.
  • GIVEAWAY CLOSES: Wednesday, April 24th or at 10,000 entries (whichever comes first)
  • USUAL STUFF: One entry per e-mail address is permitted. The winners will be selected using random.org and announced on Thursday as an update to this post. That’s right, come right back here on Thursday for the announcement of our winners. Good luck…

    I’m kinda into nautical colors now for some reason. Classic reds, navys, with stripes and patterns thrown in the mix.

    Pantone Me! I think grey as far as paint goes is my color of the year. Putting in some very light grey tile in my bathroom this weekend and plan to paint above the board and batten a very dark grey.

    I think they missed with emerald. Green is nice, but that particular shade can be difficult to wear and to mix into existing décor. I’ve been working with clear greens and blues with pops of orange, red and gold. With so much color, I’m keeping the walls and floors pale.

    I’ve been SLOWLY chiseling away on a kitchen reno. So far I’m loving muted aqua walls with teal and lime accents. Its fun and funky and light (of course white cabinets and trim in process as well).

    I’ve been on a red kick for a lot of years. I guess it’s just my favorite. Little baby is due in August, and I’m hoping to talk my husband into painting the crib red.
