Snowstorm

We're in the midst of the first snowstorm of the winter up 'round my way. By the time all is said and done tomorrow we'll have gotten around 30 cm (12").

Edit added a few hours after the original post: The storm is pretty much over already, and we didn't get as much snow as they were originally announcing.











In the pic below is my buddy Baby Bo, whom you may recall is also known as Libearace. Next to him is his wife, Snowflake. The two of them fell head over heels in love with each other a while back, and after dating for a month or two decided to get hitched. Baby Bo, being a polar bear, and Snowflake, having her winter layer on, insisted on going out to play in the snow while I did some shoveling.

Pantone's® 2009 Fall Color Forecast--Burnt Sienna

The next color up is Burnt Sienna:



"Fall would not be complete without a seasonal favorite like Burnt Sienna, a deepened, earthy shade of orange, reminiscent of an autumn sunset. Pair this versatile hue with Nomad and Rapture Rose for a different twist." From the PANTONE^® Fashion Color Report Fall 2009

I have nothing with this color in it, but you're welcome to post the link to the listing for any item you have containing this color in the comments section.

Happy Thanksgiving to My American Friends

Pantone's® 2009 Fall Color Forecast--Iron

Iron is the next color up in this series:



"Strong yet understated Iron serves as the “new black,” making traditional basics much more interesting. Neither gray nor brown, Iron is a grounding color that coordinates well with all colors in the palette." From the PANTONE^® Fashion Color Report Fall 2009.

I have this piece, currently not listed in my shop, which has a color very similar to Iron in it:

Pantone's® 2009 Fall Color Forecast--Rapture Rose

The fifth color up in this series is Rapture Rose:



"Adding spark to the fall palette, Rapture Rose artfully captures the vibrancy of fuchsia and the softness of pink. Underscored by nurturing and feminine tones, the addition of Rapture Rose enlivens the more traditionally subdued fall hues. Look for it in cosmetics as well as clothing and accessories." From the PANTONE^® Fashion Color Report Fall 2009.

I currently have no pieces that incorporate this color, but if you do post the link to the listing for the item in the comments section.
