Since it’s the beginning of a new year, I thought I’d share some art, food, destination, and DIY ideas inspired by Pantone’s color of the year, Ultra Violet!

  1. I love everything about this post. I love the photos, and that is my favorite color. I love how your choices say so much about you. :) My favorites are the “strength and dignity are her clothing” card in front of the flowers, the bus of humanity, the chocolates, the cake, the chive blossom jar, the cactus sunset… who am I kidding, I loved them all!
