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…

    I am so in love with all things yellow and gray right now- so much so that I’m redoing our bathroom in those colors :)

    My color of the year is teal blue. We painted the ceiling of our baby boy’s nursery bright teal, and now I am excited with anticipation for him to be here in a few weeks!

    I’ve dubbed my ‘color of the year’ “Dusty Teal” – it’s my not-so-neutral neutral that looks great with all of the coral, yellow, and pale aqua accents I love!

    PANTONE ME! Yellow is my go to color for pretty much anything. I’m drawn to it. But to tone it down a little I always keep any shade of grey as my neutral.

    PANTONE ME! Spring is here, so the colors I pull out of the closet are getting lighter, brighter, and have more pattern and print. Corals, teals, and gold tones are what I gravitate towards these days. In my home, however, I continue to be drawn to grays, white and black. Those neutrals serve as the perfect backdrop to any other colors or patterns mixed in.

    PANTONE ME!

    For our house, I’m slowly migrating away from reds and yellows and to blues and greens. I just painted our half bath BM Dragonfly and LOVE. IT. Like, turn on the light just to see it love it.
    For me personally, I seem to have more and more green and coral/orange. :)
