#Pantone Color of the Year #Radiant #Orchid

By now we all know that the Pantone Color of the Year is Radiant Orchid. I have seen this color used in various hues of light lilac all the way to deep plum. It's one of my favorite Color of the Year selections in a while, so I'm really excited to feature it in my Etsy shop!


The Radiant Orchid nesting bowls are among my favorite pieces. They pack quite the punch, yet are soft and feminine because of their fluted edges. it's a great use of contrast, too, with the stark white clay and purple paint.


In terms of wearable pieces, this painted stone ring is a great example of balance, contrast and line. The dark plum shade of Radiant Orchid grounds the pieces, while the white paint splashes across the surface to add visual interest.

I cannot wait to incorporate Pantone's Color of the Year more into my work. These tones are definitely in my Purpose collection for Urban Gallery, and I will be bringing them into pieces for my ready-to-ship line in my Etsy shop as well.

Etsy Front Page

I have a massively huge announcement that I honestly never imagined I would be able to share with you all...

As I do every morning, I turned my iPhone on and checked my Etsy stats.


What in the world?! Typically, I expect to see anywhere from 50-200 views. This was incredibly out of the ordinary and meant only one thing...

I made it to the front page of Etsy!

Well....my Monaco blue nesting bowls did!

They were featured in this treasury a few days ago, which Etsy seemed to love and put it on their front page at 5:00am this morning!


I am beyond thrilled, and there may have been some dancing-jumping-on-the-bed-celebrating going on!
