Last month Pantone announced the trend colors for 2021. Usually, only one color is chosen, but this year there are two – “Illuminating” and “Ultimate Gray.” These colors will most likely dominate the fashion world as well as home decor!
I thought it would be fun to use these colors as the primary focus of this week’s Facebook Live project. (You can watch the replay here!) It was a challenge for me since I wouldn’t normally have thought of putting these two colors together, but I am pleased with the results and I hope you are too!
