The one thing I find missing in this year’s Pantone palette is a real green. There’s a pale blue-green they are calling Hemlock but when I think of Spring I think of naturally derived greens–fresh new grass, the first leaves on a tree, and sprouting plants pushing up through the earth. So I thought I’d look for something that added that back into this palette.<\/p>\n

This necklace by\u00a0Kseniya Dolgopolova<\/a>\u00a0includes a few shades like Pantone’s Hemlock as well as rich natural greens.<\/p>\n

I would have questioned putting these colors because although somewhat analaguous, the hemlock is a pastel while leaf green is muted but with more saturation. However, with this limited palette, it does work decently and the difference adds some significant contrast to a green based palette.<\/p>\n

Take a moment or two and wander through the charming imagination of Kseniya’s work in\u00a0her Etsy shop<\/a>.<\/p>\n
