We are barely a week into the new year, yet the interwebs are teeming with gorgeous finds featuring Pantone’s not one, but TWO colors of the year Serenity and Rose Quartz. This year is Pantone’s first time ever selecting two colors to share the spotlight and for good reason. Serenity and Rose Quartz strike a balance between warmer rose tones and cooler, calm blue that symbolizes a sense of peace and order. We could all use more of both, couldn’t we?

If this award winning color combination brings us a little more relaxation in our culture’s turbulent times, then I’m willing to give it a shot. Here are a few inspiring ways to use these colors in your home.

HI,

From motherhood and marriage to the sidelines of Friday night lights, each entry offers a glimpse into the layered life I live—and the brands, spaces, and values that support it.

Whether you're here to be inspired, encouraged, or aligned, welcome. This is life beyond the blueprint
