color palettes

I was reading about Jessica Swift's color inspiration on Blu Penny and she mentioned a couple sites, one being design-seeds.com which is what this image above is from. Another is colourlovers.com. I decided to make a little list of my favorite color sites in my bar over there on the right. kuler is fun and I've posted about that one before.  And of course Pantone which is really great if you want to know what the current trend is for color in fashion or home decor. This year is honeysuckle... “In times of stress, we need something to lift our spirits. Honeysuckle is a captivating, stimulating color that gets the adrenaline going – perfect to ward off the blues,” says Leatrice Eiseman, executive director of the Pantone Color Institute.
