Pantone Color of the Year

sugilite lepidolite

I love color! How about you?

So, last year I started a tradition of pairing up a crystal video to match up with Pantone’s Color of the Year. To explain sort of what that’s about this is from the Pantone website:

Since 2000, the Pantone Color Institute™ has been designating a Color of the Year to express in color what is taking place in the global zeitgeist.

Pretty cool, right? You can find out more about that here.

I decided to create a NEW color collage of my own…with crystals! YOU LIKE?

In today’s featured video I go over 2 very specific stones that I felt aligned very well with “Radiant Orchid”.

OK, so now I’d like you to please post below in the comments…what other crystals & stones do you think would also make a great vibrational match for Radiant Orchid?

Sugar Pop, thanks for watching & sharing your special brand of glitter-genius here w/ all the rest of the Crystal Hotties!

BTW, some dude on my FB page said he thought I was excluding the males from our community by referring to us all as Crystal Hotties.

Ummm, since when is a “Hotttie” gender-specific? Frank (my husbo) will take great offense to that since he is the OFFICIAL HEAD CRYSTAL HOTTIE! 😉

So, please know; male, female, transgender & all shades in between…we’re all Crystal Hotties!

OK, much love & Sparkle- Bombs!
