Does the start of school make you dream of Spring?!




 Well into September, with vacations officially over, most of us are just getting ourselves and our families organized back into a semblance of a structured routine.  Halloween is being thrust into our faces in every store and Thanksgiving can't be too far away. 

Pantone, however, has leapfrogged fall, as well as winter, and published their Spring 2012 Color Report:



I am so happy to see such cheerful Easter-egg colors!  Especially as we head into winter.   Keep this bright forecast in mind if you get Restoration Hardware's new "catalog" or should I say "doorstop".  Although I love their quality and generally their style, I think they have "jumped the shark" with this one.

Get the gist of what I am talking about and read what Jennifer Sergent so eloquently wrote about their Fall 2011 catalog in her  DC By Design blogpost.  It's worth the read just for her take on the room vignettes!

Here's to color and common sense!!
