Fall colors are here and shades of Harvest represent good and plenteous times. The paper industry has always been closely aligned with fashion shades of the season. Dramatic and earthy can best describe the fall shades of 2010.
Moss has worked itself into our world of color as an unassuming yellow-green range that can be over-looked amongst the healthy Harvest shades. To add a little more dimension to this, we introduce the reddish-brown shade of Russett which typically drives its attention to the organic plant world or healthy, warm meal. Russett and Moss are both vivid and subtle this Fall and can be used in combination with each other or they are both strong enough to stand alone.
Gold as we know from the earliest centuries is perceived as value, worth and great quality. This is an unmistakable addition to Fall and can interlace itself with all the earthy shades to stand out as a glimmer of hope and beauty. We see gold as a yellowish tone many times coated with a shimmer or metallic gleam and is one of our brighter, lighter options for the Fall.
Cognac with its burnt shades of copper and browns is a unique harvest color to implement into those valuable projects. The brandy that bears the name Cognac is held to a very high standard when it is distilled and aged. Much like the beautiful shade of cognac paper, it is appreciated for its fine quality and appearance. To create the project that deserves to be called exquisite, try working shades of Cognac, draped with purple and you can design a visual surprise.
Colors of harvest is just the beginning of fall shades to be combined or stand alone. Other great colors included in the Harvest palette are olive, pewter, bordeaux and eggplant. Take a moment to spot the earthy warm shades you may have grown accustom to over-looking. Hold that rustic shade next to the unlikely contrast and you may find the colors of harvest have spoke to you in a brand new light and sparked a level of creativity you did not know existed.
