2024’s Trendsetting Tints

March 27, 2024

Your Space Will Pop With Peach!

 An emerging color trend in the 2024 home décor realm is the color peach. Pantone announced the 2024 Color of the Year as Peach Fuzz, marking the 25th year of the program. Peach is a subtle yet versatile hue that is the perfect balance of softness and warmth. 

A statement color, peach is a stylish choice that adds a touch of sophistication and contemporary elegance. It suits different home décor styles, such as eclectic bohemian, which is a carefree design style that mixes colors and patterns, and neo-traditional, which is a contemporary take on traditional design. Introducing peach into your home can be tricky, but we’ve created a guide to help you freshen up your space in a variety of ways. 

1. Peachy Paints
If you’re looking to make a splash with Pantone’s 2024 Color of the Year, dive right in with peach paint! Consider painting entire rooms, bookcases or even kitchen cabinets to bring this warm hue to life in your home. If you’re lacking inspiration, try using an online color palette generator to give you some ideas on what colors work best with Peach Fuzz. 

2. Woven Warmth
Easily elevate the comfort and charm of your space with peachy textiles. Peach is inherently a warm tone, so rugs, pillow covers or tapestries of the same color will naturally create a soft and welcoming atmosphere. Plus, it’s a quick and cost-effective way to add style to your home. Peach tones lend a subtle playfulness and vibrancy to a room, which makes it the perfect color to introduce for spring.  

3. Fuzzy Finishes
A fun and unexpected way to add Peach Fuzz to your home is through art. Search for paintings with your desired level of peach tones present and show them off in your living room or entryway. Neutral colors pair well with peach, which makes it an easy color to design around. If art is too big of a commitment, think smaller items, such as vases or candles, that reflect the 2024 Color of the Year. You can’t go wrong with a candle that is on trend and emits a fresh, inviting scent!

As we move into the second quarter of another exciting year, I want to take a moment to reflect on our accomplishments and share some of the new initiatives we are implementing in the realms of sales, marketing and community engagement. Over the past year, GBU Life has reached significant milestones thanks to the dedication and hard work of our team and the trust and support of our members. Our sales department has exceeded targets, and we have expanded our reach to more communities than ever before. We have launched several successful marketing campaigns that have not only increased our visibility but have also strengthened our brand's presence in the industry. For this year, our focus will be educating potential new members on the importance of securing their financial futures through life insurance and annuity products while serving their communities as part of our great Society. Looking ahead, we are committed to enhancing our sales strategies to better serve you. We are introducing some tools for our agents to enhance our products. One new tool is our Defined Benefit Annuity program which combines the Future Flex Fixed Index Annuity (FIA) with a software tool that can help determine retirement savings needs and break them down into contributions over time to help you meet your retirement goals. Be sure to keep in touch with your GBU agent to review your plans and products to see how adding an FIA to your retirement planning can help boost your savings efforts
