Wow it’s cold this week (!) but even so there are signs everywhere that Spring is just around the corner. We have little glimpses of it in the Spring flowers appearing everywhere alongside early daffodils
So let’s channel that fresh Spring Green feeling so we can hold onto it through the cold snap and come out the other side with a sunny smile on our faces
In readiness I’ve been gathering together some of my favourite ‘Spring Green’ home decor must-have items to brighten your homes right now
Green is a wonderfully uplifting colour that brings the outside in, running the gamut from neutrals such as eau-de-nil through to the vibrant in-your-face emeralds. It can be warm, citrussy, elegant, calming; whatever you want it to be depending on its base notes and what you combine it with
Our stunning feature image shows how subtly green can make its presence felt to create a wonderfully warm backdrop. The colour used is actually a ‘grey’ but with a hint of green (Little Greene’s Re-mix Normandy Grey)
Let’s start large with some key piece green home decor items:
GREEN HOME DECOR MUST-HAVE ITEM NO’S 1, 2 & 3: In need of a new desk space?
