Decor Trends - Some Lemon Sortbet anyone?

Lemon sorbet  is not just a refreshing palate cleaner but has also been named 2013 paint color of year by Benjamin Moore. I was mildly surprised when I came across this information as color and home decor trends have been moving on to richer, jewel tones in home decor like 'emerald green', Pantone's color of the year. I love yellow as a wall paint and use it  my own home and my main reason for choosing this color was that I wanted something that reallybrightens up my home.
