Etsy color celebration #1, 2011

Mmm...pink. "Honeysuckle" to be exact.  Pantone, the leading authority on color, has selected this shade as their featured color of 2011:

"A Color for All Seasons. Courageous. Confident. Vital. A brave new color, for a brave new world. Let the bold spirit of Honeysuckle infuse you, lift you and carry you through the year. It’s a color for every day – with nothing 'everyday' about it."  

This is the 2011 Pantone Color of the Year, as explored through (mostly) vintage Etsy items.  Vibrant, fresh, and summery, I thought it was a perfect time to feature this wonderful hue.  Enjoy!
