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…

    Pantone me please!

    Color of the year? Yellow. Because I’m determined to let the sun shine on my life and find the joy. (Color of the last two weeks however? White. 3′ of snow in April. It’s getting a bit ridiculous. The sledding is fun though!)

    All of those colors are beautiful, but the Medieval Blue really jumped out at me. I had to laugh once I saw the name, though, as it felt a little too perfect. I am a medieval historian, after all.

    We’re still living with “builder’s white,” which in this case is not white, but yellowish-white and most unattractive, but convincing my husband that painting makes sense is another story.

    I think my clothing color of the year would be aqua. It just feels happy to me. The house color of the year? I would have to say a chocolate brown – it’s super rich & you can pull lots of bright colors with it to make it look awesome.
