Pantone Fall 2017 Color Forecast
Once again, the change of seasons is upon us and the ladies at Island Cove have interpreted the Fall 2017 Pantone color forecast for beading enthusiasts. There are 10 hues in total, and we're presenting them in five cool combinations. Drop by the shop and check out our collection of Czech and Japanese seed beads, colorful cords and leathers, seashell beads, and more in the colors of the season.
According to Pantone, the Fall 2017 color palette is “bookended by a dynamic Grenadine red and a tawny Autumn Maple, the color palette for Fall 2017 leans more to warmth, “ says Eiseman. “While comforting, enveloping colors and ease are crucial to the seasonal feeling, standout shades include a pale pink Ballet Slipper, a refreshing Golden Lime, and a bright Marina blue. These hues add a striking touch when paired with the classic autumnal shades of Navy Peony, Neutral Gray, Butterrum and Tawny Port.”
Shaded Spruce + Autumn Maple
- The round operculum beads mix both of these fall hues. Combine them with maple pips and artisan lampwork leaves in a deep green to complete the look.
Butterum + Marina
- For a flash of blue, choose a labradorite cabochon or pick up some rivolis. We also carry tile beads, tubes of rizos, and torch fired enamel dragonfly charms in this palette.
Grenadine + Golden Lime
- The pairing starts with oval-shaped Czech table-cut beads with a Picasso finish. Add to the mix: 4mm fire polish beads, red coral nuggets, lime green daggers, or hanks of sparkly two-cut beads.
Tawny Port + Ballet Slipper
- Island Cove carries pip beads in both of these colors, plus shimmery daggers, matte rose quartz beads, and the most gorgeous Czech leaf beads too.
Neutral Gray + Navy Peony
- Rounding out the collection, grey and navy combine beautifully. Shop our selection of sodalite and lapis cabochons, silver pips, navy large-hole pearls, artisan lampwork leaves in grey silk, and the coolest matte navy fire polish beads.
