Drumroll, please! Pantone 17-5641 Emerald has been named Pantone’s 2013 Color of The Year. It is lively, radiant and lush, so I am pleased it will be popping up in homes and business around the country. Emerald can be used as a splash of color in accessories or applied directly to the walls for a dramatic punch.
