You cannot go wrong with using green in your home and I will challenge anyone to a duel who says otherwise! The thing is, take a look around your home and you will probably see green already there. That spider plant sitting all lonely on a shelf? Green. The glimpse of your garden through your bifold windows? Green.
Before my garden blogs starting stealing the stage (I am still somewhat surprised that anyone wants to read my blogs about my garden, seeing as I don’t know the slightest thing about gardening. Shhhh. Don’t tell anyone!), my most liked blog post was about using Dark Green in my living room. Maaaaan, you all enjoyed that blog post!
Green has always been my favourite colour, it is extremely versatile, goes with pretty much every colour on the spectrum and most importantly, it helps to connect you with nature and bring the outside in. Depending on the shade you use, it can have an extremely calming effect in a room, it can act as a fabulous neutral or it can be dramatic and provide a vibrant background in your home.
It is the perfect colour to represent nature and the natural world and is often associated with tranquillity, good luck, optimism, health and money. But it can also represent envy and jealousy – hence the phrase “turning green with envy”.
