Hey guys, happy Friday! So, I wrote an entire blog about color trends for spring and summer, basing it on information coming from the Pantone Color Institute. However, after thinking about it, I realized I wanted to write one on popular color trends according to Tanya…that would be me. I get that the Pantone Color Institute knows their shit and they have a lot of research and what not to back their top color picks, but let’s face it, this is not Vogue and we do not live in Paris.

So, I am super excited about this blog thing. I have always wanted to start one, not really sure why, but it always sounded like something fun to do. So, this is all going to be about Joel and me, where we began, where we are now, what we do, how that can help you and your business, and the list goes on… Let’s start from the beginning (or shall I say, my beginning). I met Joel during Mardi Gras of 2016. When I...
