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…I would have to say Yellow. Because it reminds me of sunshine a very happy color. And who doesn’t like happy colors.

    My color of the year? Daffodil yellow. I can’t help myself. It’s on my front door, it’s on my new garden stool, it’s on some living room pillows! And I just want more.

    My color of the year for interior decorating: Turquoise
    My color of the year for personal fashion: Coral

    I LOVE calming greens and blues for houses. And while I also love those colors for my wardrobe, I’ve been finding that this season, bright corals and oranges and pinks have been winning me over! Yay for color!

    PANTONE ME!!

    I’ve been looking into starting up a small refurbish/repurposed furniture business.. I’m 22, work at Pier 1, and fresh out of college (aka broke).. SO I could totally use this. I actually just bought your book last week at Barnes & Nobles (which was honestly the first time I had heard of you).. picked it up out of the blue and let me just say I haven’t put it down. GREAT ideas guys! LOVE your work.

    As for colors.. (which I happened to write my senior thesis on) lately I’ve been obsessing over coral.. while Pier 1 is obsessing over teals so I’ve also been falling in love with them, too.
