2017 has already been a very colorful year!  We look forward to finding the beauty and colors to come for the rest of 2017.

Our expert crafts-team of color matchers is always on the look out for colors to create and they rely on our on-trend, in-the-industry, always-aware network of reps, customers, and fans to report back on color and design trends.

Colors Of the year 2017_1

For 2017 we loved browsing color-focused companies choices for their Colors of the Year.  Three stood out to us as especially on-trend and ready-to-use for stunning designs.

Colors Of the year 2017_

Pantone, Greenery

PantoneCOY2017

Of course, the powerhouse of the color-world, Pantone, has shown off their Color Of The Year as “Greenery”.

This bright yet earthy color inspires a sense of refreshment and natural feeling.  Our team quickly got to work matching this color and compiling a collection of colors inspired by the color Greenery. Order Greenery Inspired Samples

Our team also went to work building additional collections, inspired by Pantone’s Color Pairing suggestions.

Benjamin Moore, Shadow

BM_COY2017_

Benjamin Moore‘s Color of the Year choice sits almost in contrary reaction to Pantone’s.  Pantone’s bright and natural is here contrasted with more subtle and moody.  Playing off tones of purples, Shadow has depth and mystery.  Our compilation of Shadow inspired leathers shows the far reaching range this color can play with.  Order Shadow Inspired Samples

Sherwin-Williams, Poised Taupe

SherwinWCOY2017_

Poised Taupe is Sherwin-Williams‘ choice of Color of The Year.  Just as the name would suggest this color is calm and assured.  Poised Taupe fits with any design scheme, but doesn’t need to fade into the background.  Our team pulled together a dynamic yet reserved collection of Poised Taupe inspired leathers.  Order Poised Taupe Inspired Samples

WE’RE HAVING A BOWLING TOURNAMENT!!!!

On FEB 11th from 1pm TO whenever

At PERRY LANES,

Townsend is hosting a BOWLING TOURNAMENT!

This is a fun raising and a fundraising event for us.  It is being headed up and organized by Kevin and Louise Kucel, with help from our Moments Team and is the first opportunity this year for our new HUGS Program/Team to get involved in making a positive impact on our community.

See the Facebook Event here: www.facebook.com/events/206894326450346/

Theresa DaBiere-Craig has been a Townsend Partner for years, providing our team with wisdom, teachings, and trainings.  She will be working again with us closely throughout this year.  She is a super fan of Townsend and we are very much super fans of her.  Theresa and her family were struck with terrible tragedy this past summer when her son, Sean, died while on the Sacandaga Lake.  Sean Craig was loved by his family and friends and was a highly respected individual who wanted to just make the world a happier place.  This summer saw many tragedies on our lakes, and the death of Sean has inspired Theresa and her family to take action.  They are working to make our lakes safer for all of us.

We are hosting this community-wide Bowling Tournament to help raise funds for their cause, the Sean Craig Memorial Fund, https://seancraigmemorialfund.wordpress.com/  

So, to make an awesome impact for the cause, to make the lakes safer for all of us, to show Theresa our support and care, and to have a super fun time together – please join us for our February 11 Bowling Tournament at 1 pm at Perry Lanes or consider donating/becoming a sponsor.  Please help spread the word to anyone and everyone.

See KEVIN Kucel or LOUISE Kucel to sign up your team or to donate toward the cause or with any questions or suggestions. 

Thank you for your giving, your show of support, your community involvement, and your sweet sweet rolls!

FEB 11th 1pM TO ?

PERRY LANES

BOWLING TOURNAMENT!

Presented by Townsend Leather

Turning tragedy into action is an incredibly difficult thing to do, and when it happens within our community it inspires us to take action ourselves.  Townsend Leather Partners were stunned and moved by the numerous lake accidents that occurred over this past summer, and the tragic death of Sean Craig especially affected us.

So, we are doing a small part in helping take action toward his family’s cause.  The Sean Craig Memorial Fund is on a mission to make our lakes safer, “Our mission is to raise funds to support a local dive team and in addition be able to provide funds for sonar equipment to use for future operations.”  Because safety and support are a never-ending challenge, they will continue to grow their mission when each goal has been met.

You can find out more about Sean Craig’s story and the memorial-lake-safety-improving-fund in his name at: www.seancraigmemorialfund.wordpress.com  

As a small, but heartfelt gesture of bringing our community together and doing what we can to help fund their noble mission, we are hosting a Bowling Tournament.

Anyone is welcome to donate, sponsor, or participate
