Trends—Emerald green was announced as the Pantone color for 2013. Emerald is described as meaning lively, lush, and radiant. When I first read what the color for this year was, I thought to myself how I was incorporating it into my wardrobe or home and quickly realized that I wasn't incorporating it at all! Green hues can give feelings of renewal,life, hope, and freshness. Who doesn't want those feelings? I am excited to start adding some emerald products to my wardrobe and house!

You can add a pop of color to your kitchen by adding emerald mugs, plates, or bowls. Area rugs, an emerald vase with flowers, or table mats are also an easy way to add this color to your home.
