Pantone has announced the color of the year and it is……drum role, EMERALD! So get ready to see this color all over this year! When I think of emerald green a few things come to mind. First the Wizard of Oz of course. Who could forget Emerald City? Second my Junior High School prom dress. I graduated Junior High school in 1989. Last the beautiful landscape of Ireland. I’ve never been there, but it is on my bucket list. I love the combination of purple with green. I think mother nature does it best. I am always excited when my Vinca vine blooms all over in the spring! Hope you enjoy seeing emerald green this year, I know I will!
