Colors of the year for 2014 and inspiration on to use them

8 January, 2014 By Yvon Prehn Leave a Comment

Pantone's color of the year 2014
Pantone's color of the year 2014 is Radient Orchid-- a great accent color for church communications.

Using the colors of the year isn't essential, but learning about them is fun and trying them can add a contemporary and timely feel to your communications. Below is a short video tour of the colors of the year from 3 organizations, plus some ideas for how to use them.

As you'll see the various organizations have different opinions on what the most important color is and two of them (you'll see which ones when you watch the video) would work well as accent colors in church communications. For instructions on how to get the colors into MS Publisher, check out this video: How to get any color from the webs into MS Publisher. 

Below the video is a list of direct links for all the resources in the video.

Following are the live links to all of the sites shown in the video above.
