So much envy! My kitchen and dining room are both in bright green! These are georgeous!

[Samantha]

So excited! I'll be ordering lots of lovely green for my shop. Much better than this year's color.

[Ella]

I'd love leaf green. (My favorite greens have some yellow weight to them.)

[Krysta]

I've always liked this bundle. Green is my favorite color. :D I particularly like lime greens.

[DMeredith]

I love greens and this color bundle is gorgeous!

[Eileen]

This bundle is fabulous.

[Lisa]

I love green! It's my go to color and can be used for winter and spring holidays!

[Sharon T]

Love these greens! Yellow greens are my current fav.

[DianeY]

I like green, but it's probably not my favorite. This bundle is very pretty though!

[Jeannine]

I'm looking forward to playing around with emerald, though it usually isn't a shade of green I love - lime/acid greens being more my thing. It's so hard to pick one favorite color. Depends on the day!

very pretty - a bit more soothing than this year's (which I love!) Green is my husband's favorite, and the color of our bedroom, and the color of our office bookcases - so I guess I do like green.

[Andres]

Emerald is a great pick.

[B Greene]

Well, take a look at my last name and you will see that I love "Greenes" enough to marry one :-) Way to go, EMerald!!!

[Andy]

I think Pantone's choices are always spot-on. Can't wait to see more of the pretty emeralds start popping up in stores!

[Sally Johnson]

I can think of many many things I could make with this. Very beautiful shades...

[Debbie St. Germain]

Green is my favorite color, so of course I would pick green.

Emerald is pretty but my favorite greens tend to be darker. Still, it is more to my liking than many of their past choices!

[Jan]

I love Emerald, so this is perfect.

[Jan]

I am loving the emerald! Thanks for offering this generous giveaway! Kona is the best!

[Angie]

One short day... in the Emerald City. One short day, to have a lifetime of fun.

[MBMathis]

Green is my favoritest of all favorite colors. I would love to get this bundle.

[Nanette]

I am a huge fan of greens in general and emerald green in particular, so I think Pantone picked a winner!

[Cyd Runde]

The greens are lovely, and would work flawlessly in the applique I am doing. It would be such a special Christmas if I could win these!

[Jess in Tyler]

I am more of a yellow fan than green- of any shade. But, emerald is nice!
