Theme Of The Week: Colors.

Turquoise, pink coral, blue curacao, avocado green, lavender...we can't get enough color. Even Pantone, the color identifying/matching guru, crowned "honeysuckle" their 2011 color of the year. Bold choice, Pantone--bravo!

Meet (and embrace) Pantone's color of the year, 2011.

This week, we're bringing you a little pop of color. Each day, we'll match up our favorite handmade and vintage Etsy finds with our favorite Pantone colors--how awesome is that?! Fabulous finds, bold colors...you can't go wrong with that! Even the black and white lovers will appreciate this one.

What's your favorite color? Tweet us @blackbirdtees and let us know!

A Trip To The Woods: Female-Friendly Camping Finds.

Vintage coral pink camping thermos, from Compost This.

Tree stump embroidery, from Miniature Rhino.

Hand-knit pom pom, from Tortilla Girl.

"White Tent" giclee print, from Gretchenmist.

The camping weekend--an essential road trip experience. Unfortunately, my girlfriend is a bit camping-phobic. However, I'd like to think that even she would brave the great outdoors if these female-friendly accessories we're part of the mix. Seriously, how can you go wrong with a coral pink thermos!

Part of our extended "Road Trip" series. More finds (and memories) from the road, all this week!
