Green goes with everything…verdant hues taking cues from surrounding nature. A seldom used colour in past centuries as its pigment was expensive to “manufacture” it is now available in all shades and intensity. Happy Dance!
Notice how the subway tile has been installed in 2 different ways and what an interesting effect it produces.
A jolt of energy and joy when introduced into any decor, bringing the outdoors in makes us all dream of Spring!

Here are my 5 tips on introducing green into your own home.
1) Like in nature: Greens don’t have to match to look good together.
Well-chosen accessories will give you a green fix if you are not ready to commit to a more bold statement.
2) Geometric & graphic patterns in green introduce bold colour in an otherwise neutral setting and add an element of surprise that can easily be changed with the seasons.
Ikat patterns are juxtaposed to create a dynamic but not exaggerated look.
3) Greens & blues are beautiful together… restful & easy on the eye.
4) Go all out! If you are going to jump and embrace green in your life, goo all the way by painting the trims the same shade as the wallpaper.
5) If you can strike the right balance, mixing patterns makes a room so much richer.
