holiday prints

Christmas is right around the corner!

Seriously, the time has come for holiday prints and patterns if they’re to be available when people start shopping for holiday crafts and decorating, pretty much any day now. I am so not in the holiday mood, right now! I’m still crossing fingers for the green tomatoes on the deck, not thinking about wreaths… Challenges are good though so here’s the first of probably many this month:

It’s based on a real, native plant but I’m not sure if it says holiday to people that aren’t familiar with it… But then maybe it doesn’t have to!

I’ve also been looking ahead to the colors of 2020 which usually start being discussed around this time of year when the large fashion shows happen. I’m not sure what to make of what I’ve seen so far, there are some pretty shades but nothing shocking or out of the ordinary. I’m going t guess that whatever Pantone picks for 2020 isn’t going to be as outrageous as coral was…
