 - Converted `EuiDescribedFormGroup` to TypeScript ([#2810](https://github.com/elastic/eui/pull/2810))
 - Changed SASS comments to non-compiled comments in invisibles files ([#2807](https://github.com/elastic/eui/pull/2807))
 - Added `rowHeader` prop to `EuiBasicTable` to allow consumers to set the identifying cell in a row ([#2802](https://github.com/elastic/eui/pull/2802))
+- Added prepend and append to `EuiColorPicker` ([#2819](https://github.com/elastic/eui/pull/2819))
 - Improved `EuiDescribedFormGroup` accessibility by avoiding duplicated output in screen readers ([#2783](https://github.com/elastic/eui/pull/2783))
 - Added optional `key` attribute to `EuiContextMenu` items and relaxed `name` attribute to allow any React node ([#2817](https://github.com/elastic/eui/pull/2817))
