Fuchsia Red, Pantone Spring 2009



My eyes! My eyes! For me, this color is great as an accent. A bit of brightness without overwhelming the eye. Although I love this color, it typically isn't something I'm drawn to. I only have two pieces in my collection that are similar to Fuchsia Red. What I love about Pantone's picks in regards to my craft, is that it forces me to think outside of my "crayon box". If I were shopping for beads, I may overlook this color as being to brash or bold. I need to stop and reconsider that what I do isn't head to toe. Its jewelry, not a total look.Here is what I have that is similar to Pantone Spring 2009 shade: Fuchsia Red.

So what do you all have that fits in with this vibrant shade? Post your piece and I will Twitter and Stumble you. Please return the favor for me. Its karma, baby.

  3. This isn't really "fuchsia", but pretty darn close. The fun thing about this glass color, Rubino Oro or Gold Cranberry, is that the glass has real gold flecks in it which enhances the beauty.
