Color Palette: Herbs + Spices Earth Tones

I opened the spice cabinet the other day and saw cinnamon, turmeric, paprika, cardamom, basil… and I thought wow. Look at all those beautiful earthy tones, right out of nature and into our recipes! That was all I needed to see to inspire this fresh herbs and spice color palettes.

I’d rather have a cupboard full of spices than a closet full of heels.
