Use Pantone's 2025 Color of the Year 'Mocha Mousse' in Winter Displays

Is the holiday season wearing you out?
Have you got the Winter Woes?

These photos show one effective way to move forward
after the holiday shopping rush has slowed:
incorporate the 'it' color of the new year into your displays. 

The new 'color of the year' for 2025 from Pantone,
'The Color Authority' - is 'Mocha Mousse'. 
Adding this hue to a few displays isn't hard at all - 
and no, you don't have to have NEW product in this color!

The rich hues of brown appear in 'everyday' elements:
wood fixtures, luxurious linens, and accessories like
'pine cone' candles, rusty brown metal pots & furnishings.

Pairing brown with white ceramic serving pieces and accents
lightens the look and reflects a woodsy winter landscape,
as do the foraged large brown wood branches in pots.

Add small details, like wrapping a few empty boxes
in brown satin linens then placing it on a cake pedestal
to add a whimsical touch - a cake?! - to catch the eye.

Another whimsical touch here is the inclusion
of happy polka-dot pattern glassware,
which attracts attention + coordinates with the white ceramics.

Building a display around a color is easy - 
just gather up items you already have in that hue,
or introduce the color in a backdrop or accent pieces.
This approach allows you to re-mix staple lines you carry
to interest your customers (and gift card recipients!)
and include unsold holiday merchandise in a way
that doesn't look 'leftover' at all!
