marsala flowers


The marsala postings this week were inspired by my friend's upcoming wedding.  We had discussed color schemes that would fit in with her venue.....and I had initially suggested soft neutrals.  She surprised me when she asked how would marsala look thrown into the mix.  She had a beautiful vision, and she was right!  Adding marsala really brings out a richness....and looks beautiful for fall.  

As you can tell from the photos below, marsala looks lovely mixed with greens, wood, and a soft blush color.

What do you think of marsala added into your flowers for fall?

How to incorporate it?  Marsala looks beautiful with ivory, gold, or a light tan/blush color.  Add texture for a rich fall feel.  Marsala will translate into the holidays as well.

What is marsala?  

Marsala was the 2015 Pantone Color of the Year.  Think of red wine or burgundy.  From the Pantone website:

"Much like the fortified wine that gives Marsala its name, this tasteful hue embodies the satisfying richness of a fulfilling meal while its grounding red-brown roots emanate a sophisticated, natural earthiness.  This hearty, yet stylish tone is universally appealing and translates easily to fashion, beauty, industrial design, home furnishings, and interiors."
