The Turquoise Blues

I have always loved the combination of turquoise, gold and diamonds and lately I've been noticing a lot of  Turquoise  in the shelter magazines and blogs I've been perusing....

In fact, turquoise was deemed the color of the year  for 2010 by Pantone


Here is a collage of  images I have pinned from the web along the way:

Thanks to all the photographers for approving the use of their photos on my blog!

Next post... finding some turquoise in my life.....  Have you been noticing any in your  daily travels?

And another thing....  What color will Pantone deem as the color of the year for 2011?  We have to wait another month to find out!

    Thanks for stopping by! I love this post. One of my favorite colors for decorating is turquoise. I love to paint ceilings that deep color. It's radical but traditional at the same time and works with everything!

    Hi Renee and Tom,
    Thanks so much for your interest and the compliment! Now that you mention it maybe I should post a list of all the colors? I've used several brands but the one I like best is the cashmerino yarn by Debbie Bliss. It's a great weight and the colors are so beautiful. I'll send you an email as soon as I post the list.
    Thanks again!!
    Suzanne
