I’ve seen this set of 100 Pantone Postcards online but somehow resisted buying them. Most of the images shown in online stores were surprisingly dull. Well, now that I have seen these fantastic photographs by big bang studio, I am in love! Mailing colour swatch postcards around the world sounds like a perfect new hobby don’t you think? It sure would brighten up a stack of mail. Keeping a box of these giant colour swatches on your desk to make random palettes out of sounds quite perfect too. Come to think of it, maybe I “need” two boxes…

As lovely as these are individually, I think I would need to send them in groups of 2 or 3 or more!
One wouldn’t ever be enough. It’s all about the beautiful colour-pairing, I say! Could become a bit of an expensive habit.
Yep, I know exactly what you mean… How nice it would be slowly get a colour palette via postcards mailed individually. I might end up running to the post box each morning!
Wouldn’t it amazing to travel through a place like Mexico and then to send someone the colour palette of your Mexican trip!?
I have to admit, my mind just exploded a little.
omg i need this asap! I love paper + colours + letters. =) Please let me buy it right now!
I share your passion for that awesome idea Mélanie. I would love to be sent a colour palette! The colour scheme of a trip, holiday, festival… The options are endless! Carol, I want to buy them right now too! Colour and paper is the best combo.
awesome! i guess i’ll get some of these…
i also have a pantone mug and i love it
Before I even read your snippet i clicked and bought 2 boxes… now i read you felt the same way! haha! I am so with you guys… color and paper = love.
So happy two boxes are coming your way! I need to do the same asap. Yep, nothing better than colour and paper
I have a Pantone mug too Edgar. I guess it is hard to avoid buying colour swatches from beloved Pantone! Hope some boxes of cards are coming your way….
Hurrah! Just wandered over here through a link someone sent me via Pinterest, and lo and behold, my photos! Thanks for linking back to the source (these particular photos have been popping up all over the place with no credit, sigh) and hope you got your hands on a set- they’re truly a delight for the eyes. I can’t wait to send a stack of pink and red cards to my mummy on the week leading up to Valentine’s Day!
Happy Pantoning-

So glad you visited! I really think Pantone owes you a large colourful gift.. Your photos are a million times better than any other image I have seen of these Pantone Postcards. I’m thinking your stylish shots have sold hundreds of boxes! They definitely made me go from vaguely interested to obsessed.
