We’ve seen the print ads for dry erase paint, but this you tube video demonstrating dry erase paint in action was pretty interesting. An imaginative option for conference rooms or employee brainstorming areas as well as restaurants and coffee shops for menu items or seasonal specials. We think of it as ever-changing wallpaper with lively potential.

Pantone’s 2010 Color of the year is…turquoise! A beautiful blend of two of our favorite colors, blue & green.
”An inviting, luminous hue, as the color of the year for 2010. Combining the serene qualities of blue and the invigorating aspects of green, Turquoise evokes thoughts of soothing, tropical waters and a languorous, effective escape from the everyday troubles of the world, while at the same time restoring our sense of wellbeing.” – Pantone

Looks like Mary Mac of Allora Home was thinking ahead when she created this chair. What a great use of the color of the year.
