Pantone 2011 Color of the Year  

Not my fav
can't say as I'm running right out and getting some of that. I very rarely like pink in any shade in decor, especially one that is reminscent of bubblegum!
And isn't the honeysuckle flower gnerally yellow or white???

Maybe good for fashion
But I just keep thinking of this...

Have many ties in this hue
And the Rya rug in the living room has this color,so I'm all set! 🙂

Hmmmmm.....it could be worse

Pinky Pinky
I agree, not the best color at all. The idea of ,,The color of the year,, is... pathetic. And putting that flower behind the color... (!!!!) They couldn't find other thing?.
But now, dear Olive and Jesgord: I,d respectfully disagree in one thing: If one pink to choose, no doubt the first would be the bubblegum-pink. And be sure to ask that way to have no mistake.
I was reading about Sergio De Loop, a local under-artist, he combines the bubblegum-pink with the parrot-green, I?d add the ducky-yellow. If not absolutely-white. 😉
,,A todo o nada,, choice.

Pink
A splash of pink can be nice?

Agree
Any color can be nice in moderation. 🙂

Nice in moderation
Or any dosage at all, IMHO:

Agreed.
Yes I concur nice in moderation.

Coffee table
Arthur SP....now that's a pink I can get behind! It looks awesome in that room.

.
Fantastic coffee table! imagine that all grey room without it. Clever use of colour.

The Clash(famous Brit punk band) had speaker cabinets that color
Except they referred to it as Atomic Pink.

Loved them....
and the English Beat, and The Selector, and the Sex Pistols and INXS, and Bow Wow Wow and Adam Ant and Fine Young Cannibals and and and...that was SUCH an awesome time for music!
Still don't really like pink, though.

Have to disagree. I don't eve...
Have to disagree. I don't even like the pink in that photo. It does its job - punch. But so could other colors. Orange. Yellow. White even.
And just bc the room might look drab without that coffee table doesn't say that much ? only that the room isn't good enough to stand alone and needs saving by some garish color to give it contrast.
