It’s great to talk about green as it is my favorite color!

Green is the color of growth, the color of spring, of renewal and rebirth.

It renews and restores depleted energy.

It is the sanctuary away from the stresses of modern living, restoring us back to a sense of well being.

This is why there is so much of this relaxing color on the earth, and why we need to keep it that way.

In our spaces the color green brings balance and harmony.

The color green can be used throughout the entire home and there are a lot of amazing green hues to choose.

Decorating with shades of green can create a serene retreat or a high-energy space.

Green is the feng shui color of renewal, fresh energy and new beginnings.

2.    Green Color on Furniture

You can always bring the needed green color in your space with furniture.

Even the simplest piece of furniture takes a splash of personality with a green hue.

3.    Green Color Accessories

Green accessories give to any room a graphic presence.

From the window treatments to the chairs to the rug, the green hue infuses the space with a youthful energy.

Leaving the walls, sofa, and console tables neutral allows the bold green elements to truly shine.

Green is beneficial for anything to do with health and healing.
