If you would like get a Color Feature on my blog,
Post your item matching to next week's color, sea green (Color swatch below) in this Etsy Forum
and

    Personally, I loved all the items in this week's collection but really held my attention was the Berries and Cream bracelet. Soft and sweet.

    Also, thought I'd try my hand at the color match entry for the green:

    Wow this is just stunning. Not only do you have an eye for color but you have also collected a wonderful array of complementary items. They have a certain sensibility together that is very attractive.

    Here is my entry for teal (#es):

    Wonderful idea and so many beautiful items!
    My favourite would have to be Studio Elan's Spoon rest. Such a stunning glaze!
    As for my own item, green is definitely my colour. My sea grasses necklace - http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=11887006 and my Maiden Hair Neclace - http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=10731635 seem to match best.
