Hemlock Green
Now that Valentine’s Day has passed, I’ve got St. Patrick’s day on my mind. Of course when I think of St. Patrick’s day, hues of green immediately come to thought, but not necessarily the classic St. Patty’s Day green. I’m definitely not that traditional of a gal, so I’ve picked a green from the Pantone Spring 2014 color report, known as Hemlockย for the upcoming holiday. I know…the shade may remind you much of the mint that made a huge debut in 2013, but I personally couldn’t get enough of it last year, so it makes sense why I’m adoring this color so much! What I love most is that it’s a little bit richer, and deeper of a green, yet is still considered a pastel which means it’s just perfect for Spring and Summer’s arrival, with a bit more versatility. I can easily envision this color appearing in weddings, and parties over the next few seasons, and I can’t wait to incorporate Hemlock into my own personal style and party planning palettes, starting first with someย inspiration for your St. Patrick’s Day celebrations.

Oooh, I think I’m loving this color! I think it’s a few steps up from a beautiful mint green :)
Yes! Couldn’t agree more!! Now we just need Spring to arrive!
Much agreed! I’m definitely over the snow and cold weather after this polar vortex.
I bet! It’s been a pretty mild winter on the west coast, but I’m still ready for warmer temps and sunshine.
Gorgeous color. :-)
Isn’t it though Melissa?! My favorite for Spring! :)
Okay, google Gargantuan Green Grape by OPI. I’m wearing it on my nails now, and you might like it. Apparently there are two versions of this (weird). A minty green and a light blue version. I have the light blue version, but either way, both colors are beautiful. It sort of reminds me of this.
Just googled. I need that color in my life! So pretty and fully reminds me of hemlock green. Love!!
I thought you’d like it! Yay! ;)
