Emerald Green Announced as the Color of the Year!


Pantone LLC,  the global authority on color and provider of professional color standards for the design industries announced on the first day of Fashion Week in New York that Emerald Green is the color of the year.

They described emerald green as:

“Lively. Radiant. Lush… A color of elegance and beauty
that enhances our sense of well-being, balance and harmony."

Black Bear Rustic Décor couldn’t agree more! As a matter of fact, all of Mother Nature’s beautiful green hues are favorites throughout the year when you love the outdoors as much as we do.  
The Feather River
Goose Landing


It’s easy to bring nature’s beauty indoors at any time.  This year, to be on trend, you can add splashes of green to every room in the house.

Think of colorful dishware in the kitchen and on the patio.

Savannah Turquoise Dinnerware Set
 


Denali Blanket
Add a vibrant green  throw to the bedroom chair in the guestroom and a new fresh comforter set to the master bedroom.


Mustang Canyon Pillow
Liven up the couch with throw pillows that match the sprigs of pine on the mantel.

Fresh, fashion forward and easy to add to your home.

The runways of New York and Milan have nothing on the mountains!

Decorating My Sister's Cabin

My sister dreams of building a vacation cabin in the High Sierras someday. Until the day comes when that is possible, she is driving me crazy with her list of favorite items from Black Bear Rustic Décor. Now that we have so many beautiful new items for the new year, she’s really going bananas. She said I could share her favorites.









She loves pillows. She wants them on the couches, beds and window seats she has planned in the guest bedroom. Her top favs are:

 


 

She also envisions a super cozy bedroom and plans to start with



Yellowstone Western Decor Bedspread

 
 

(Of course she hasto have the Denali DownUnder 100% Lamb's Wool Mattress Pad Sleeper)




For indoor and outdoor entertaining, the plan is to have


Four Fringed Faux Leather Placemats
 
She knows these placemats will look stunning with silver, candles and red berries over the holidays and chic with pottery and turquoise accents for more casual occasions.
My sister’s list goes on and on, but you get the picture.  Her cupboards and closets in Southern California are full to the brim as she takes advantage of our sales and seasonal offerings.  If her dream cabin never gets built, she plans to have her own ‘rustic woman cave’ ...in Palm Springs.
