a whimsical, 2025-inspired color palette
Happy New Year, friends! It’s the first Friday of 2025, and I’m already behind. Not stressing about it, though. I have two days of vacation left and I’m determined to enjoy them. :)
Today’s color palette is a colorful and carefree mix of poppy red, hot pink, mustard yellow, cream/ivory, and a subtle, silvery shade of blue-green akin to lamb’s ear. It’s a charming, cheerful combination that feels vintage and modern at the same time.
