Some of our favorite spring colors — Prairie Hive Spring Issue 9
What are your favorite spring colors? For our Spring Issue 9, a few themes came to light — saving space, creative entertaining, DIYs and, of course, color.
As someone who has been a fan of the Easter egg palette — since birth, really — I couldn’t be happier that color is back in a big way.
This season seems to be replacing last year’s bold brights — aka neon — with hues reminiscent of bright sorbets and sherbets. Think Easter eggs with a bit more saturation. For example, I’m loving the colorful denim that’s in stores right now –it reminds me of my butter yellow Guess jeans from back in the day. Come on, admit it . You had some of those jeans, too!
In light of all our color love, we each picked our favorite spring colors for our magazine’s Welcome page. So I included our reference photos below for a full perspective.
The lesson: Now is the time to brighten your life with some color, whether you buy a new throw pillow, paint a room, or buy (another) pair of yellow jeans.
Happy (almost) Spring!
