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.

    Pantone me!!

    For the house I am loving grey for the walls. I just painted a dark teal color for our bar with citron ( i guess that is what you would call it…greeny yellow??) accents. As for everything else, I’ve always loved coral. I am really wanting to do a mint bathroom too! I love colors, all of them pretty much. :)

      Obviously it’s too early for me to spell things.

      PANTONE…not PAN-E-TONE! I’ve been listening to my Italian CDs a little too much. Adding all kinds of extra vowels.

    Emerald is always a fav, but I’m loving lime this year – perhaps because the brightness offsets this dreary snowy spring weather?

    I love neutrals these days, because it makes a great pallet to ad seasonal splashes of color. Gray all the way, Charcol in particular. And Caramel brown.

    Why do I all of a sudden want to bbq and down some skinny cow?
