Beannachtaí na Féile Pádraig ort! That is, “May the blessing of St. Patrick’s Day be on you.”
Sure, and were you wearin’ yer green socks or t-shirt or shamrock so ye didn't get pinched on March 17? But don’t be too quick to consign green to St. Patrick’s Day only.
The glory of green
Green is definitely on trend these days. Not just the eco-friendly aspect of “green”, but the COLOR green. Shades of green–from emerald to olive to moss to lime–are extremely popular just now. And little wonder: green in all its tints and tones is a universally appealing color.
We’re seeing whole rooms–ceiling too!--being painted deep, moody greens. And then there are those striking green kitchen cabinets. Not to mention sofas of green, green draperies, green case goods, and decorative accents of green. Green is earthy–the color of nature.
Are you thinking of greening up your interiors? Let’s get inspired!
Because green “plays well with others”, you’ll always find colors that work well with it. We love emerald green with black and white and moss green with blush pink. Maybe sage green with terra cotta and pale gold!
What’s your favorite color of green? What colors do you like to pair with green?
Green accents
You don’t have to go full-on green to enjoy some green touches in your home. Because green is so popular now, you’ll easily find ways to work in a little green. Green accent furniture, for example, works beautifully in a neutral room.
Green bedding and pillows will add softness and a touch of nature’s color to your spaces. We love the personality that green decorative accessories bring to a room. Add a punch of green with serveware, vases and candleholders!
Green and natural
Green plants will bring in not only the color green, but also that touch of nature that we all crave. Plants in the home are part of a renewed interest in biophilic design, which focuses on connectivity to the natural environment. No green thumb? No worries! Choose realistic faux greenery–no watering needed.
Green can be carefree and cheerful or muted and moody. Can you see some green in your home’s future?
