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…
  • ***COMMENT ISSUES? If you’re trying to enter but keep getting a “duplicate comment” warning, click here to see how to solve it!

    I’m still on a grey kick still but have been adding a lot more apple green, navy, and orange-ey coral. It’s pretty much in every room of my house and the majority of my closet now. Preppy but modern?

    Pantone Me!

    Well I always love green so I am super excited about this year’s color, but I’ve lately been going for more grays and neutrals in general. I love bright colors so, but am trying to enjoy them in moderation. Otherwise my house and wardrobe might look like the Emerald City.

    Turquoise for 2013! It’s literally in every room in my home, its slowly taking over everything!
    Turquoise with black and glass in the kitchen. Turquoise with gray in the bedroom. With purple and pinks in the girly bathroom. I’m very sneaky. Sometimes I sneak it into a room without even noticing it MYSELF!

    Loving coral again this year! It’s chalk full of so many different hues – some with more reds, some with more oranges, some with more pinks. Coral’s been the beat to my jam for a couple years now.

    PANTONE ME! I really don’t just love one color by itself, but the combination of them. In my clothes, decor. Some of my favorite combos are: yellows and blues (any tone or sibling in those families)! Love it when colors play nicely together. :0)
