With Pantone’s announcement of the color of the year, we wanted to find ways to incorporate Marsala into our home.
Marsala is a strong, warm, bold color. It’s often thought of as a neutral, like beige or navy blue. It works as a color for formal spaces or casual-cozy places.
If you are into the color, it’s easy to pair it with other colors. We searched around for examples of the color online, and here is a round up of photos from out Pinterest board showcasing this chosen color.
We talked with color expert Amy Wax from Color 911 and Virginia DesRoches from Artful Interiors about Marsala on MyFixitUpLife LIVE! Check out the interviews.

She introduced us to one of her DIY decor obsessions during a MyFixitUpLife radio interview this past year: a grandmother’s paint additive.
Garages, woodshops and workshops are perennially starved for space and organization—and mine is one of them. It’s forever jam-packed with tools, materials and work surfaces…
