Howdy folks
Wow, I can get into Blogger today. Yeeha. Their beta version of the new dashboard wouldn't let me in a couple of days ago.....
So time for some trend and color updates!
Some interesting news in the world of color: Pantone is going to market a line of PAINTS made by Fine Paints of Europe! Looks like a splendid idea. So imagine being able to specify a Pantone shade as a color for the outside of your house? Or your front door? How cool is that?
Pretty darn cool.

Otherwise, I'll mention a few hot home trends for this fall: Scent sticks (or diffuser sticks), those no-burn incense sticks are going to be one of the hottest things since sliced the iPod this holiday season. They're also much safer way to have a nice scent in your home with out the fire danger of incense.
Hot home colors: soft, warm, neutrals and violet! Soft violets, from eggplant to greyed lavender. It's hot because it's treated as a neutral color. Also hot are pop art brights; grey, silver, and stone shades, and upscale beach style. Must be that TV show about Malibu influencing the market.
So that's all for today. Soon the fall version of the color newsletter will show up on this web site So stay tuned!
Cheers,
