Color: mint
It’s the color of weddings in 2013 and it’s showing up in fashion, home decor and front doors. Mint is a great mixer with other colors and makes a great base.

Debbie Hodge embellished a page of teens in a fun pose with a fox since it not only plays up the “clever” title but also the woodsy setting.
