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.

  • 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…

    2012 was the year of Turquoise for me, but I’m declaring 2013 the year of Coral! I think it will tie in nicely with all the Turquoise I added last year. :)

    My color of the year has to be a dusty purple (sounds better than mauve right?). It’s the color in my logo and just really diggin’ it along with all the pastels coming out.

    And geez-o-peets! I could really use this give-a-way! We are buying our first home this year!!

    Usually I stick with black, white and grey but add little pops of color here and there. But recently, however, I have been lovin’ me some grey with bright yellow, turquoise, green, white, etc. I love the crisp boldness of it!

    I’d say my color of the year is coral. I’ve never been a huge fan of it before, but I’m seeing all of these bright pops of it in different accessories lately and I’m just drawn to them.
