EMERALD....color of the year 2013


Each year the major paint companies present different color for each year. For 2013 Benjamin Moore's choice is a warm pastel, Lemon Sorbet. Sherwin-Williams is opting for vintage nostalgia with its Aloe pick.

Pantone choose the color of the year 2013 to be emerald green-




Lively. Radiant. Lush… A color of elegance and beauty 
that enhances our sense of well-being, balance and harmony."


Emerald is a hue taken directly from nature. What I find most interesting about using emerald in home decor is its split personality — it can create contemporary mood, and then it can transform into a glamorous diva at a moment's notice. 
It happens that green is my favorite color! I love it, love it, love it (btw- emerald is still on my wish list…)


If you're looking for a way to freshen up your space, and you’re intrigued by emerald check and see if any of these emerald rooms fit your own mood. If you aren't ready to commit to full walls or upholstery jobs, bring it in via non-permanent textiles and accessories, like pillows, rugs, plates, bottles, drapes or glassware. Enjoy!
