Pantone Colors for Summer/Spring 2022 with a Twist

Rainbow lorikeets

As a painter and a crafter and 

someone interested in fashion,

(among many other interests!),

I had some unexpected time & decided to look 

up current Color forecasts.

As I was looking at the trends,

Pinterest decided I was also looking for birds!

So up pops gorgeous photos 

of brightly feathered birds…

and so a blog is born!

Each bird is close in color to the 

Pantone color label.

I think this is way more fun than seeing 

color swatches!

So this blog is not so looooong

my next blog will have the remaining

10 colors in Pantone’s top 20.

If this was fun for you,

please drop me a note. 

It is so encouraging when I get feedback

from my readers.

Constructive criticism is always welcome.

So are Circus orange peanuts…

‘Til next time,
