Pantone's colour pick of the year. The Color Marketing Group has this to say about it... 
"… this mustard gold is the grounded hue of optimism. Frivolous is out. Upbeat and realistic is in. Inspirations come from hardworking honeybees, a move away from glitzier golds, toward a remembrance of things past. Honey Moon is patinated and reminiscent of warm, worn leather. Honey Moon offers a fresh face on yellow and blends the sensual stimulations of color and taste. Take the sweet earthiness of honey and combine it with the romance of a harvest moon to uncover this blended yellow. Although Honey Moon will be predominant, we can see it playing out in combination with the colors of fantasy brights, whites, and comforting, subdued hues."
Wow! What a description of the new colour Honey Moon! What do you think? Do you like it? Would you use it in your home on a wall, or just as an accent colour using a decorative pot? Perhaps paint a small bench for your garden or even a trellis. Part of me likes it's warmness but not sure I could endure it on a wall for years to come. It reminds me a little of the gold cushions in my parent's camping trailer when I was growing up. I think used properly, it could be beautiful and sophisticated.
