a nautical summer color palette inspired by an anchored boat


Happy Independence Day (Weekend)! I hope at least some of you are celebrating on a beautiful beach like this somewhere. :)

I have to keep today’s post extra short (and sweet) because I have to run and pick up my kiddos, but I want you to know I’m preparing some fun freebies for my newsletter launch this fall - including bite-sized guides/tutorials on how to choose your brand colors! Stay tuned for that here on the blog or on my Insta.

In the meantime, I hope you enjoy this nautical mix of blues, sandy hues, and a pop of orange!

Need a visual? Here’s the color palette used in my ice cream cone pattern:

Happy Friday!


You can now download a free printable PDF of this color palette that includes values for print (CMYK) and web (HEX, RGB, HSL) - as well as the closest Pantone matches for coated and uncoated stock! It’s everything you need to recreate this color combo on your own.
