Color of the year - Yellow

Yes!!! I'm so excited that yellow is the Pantone color of the year. Yellow is such a happy color, and we can all use a bit more happiness. What I really want to talk about though is what a wonderful leading role yellow can play in a flower arrangement, or as a supporting actor who lifts up all the colors it touches. For example, yellow plays nicely with whites and green foliage. In this context, yellow tones down the formailty of an all white arrangemnt. It looks fresh, and feels like a kiss of sunshine. Yet if we move away from white entirely, and use yellow with other strong colors like pink, purple, and orange - well now you have a vibrant symphony! So let's put a little yellow in our lives and embrace the sunshine! XOXO
