good to be green
It doesn’t take the luck of the Irish to create a beautiful room. As I’ve said before, one of the easiest and most impactful ways to decorate is with a single colour palette. In other words one colour with lots of white or neutral. I love the freshness of a green and white with a earthy gray or brown thrown in. Even Mother Nature agrees….
If you have an all neutral room - white, beige, earth tones, try a big bunch of fresh leaves (even from the garden) and see how the crisp, cool of the green, wakes everything up like a spring morning. It’s a good way to test out what green would look like in that room.
Another way to test green in your rooms is to fool around with it at Christmas time. No commitment but a good amount of time to see how it feels.
Or even try some green veggies in your all white kitchen…
I love apple green and white with wood and naturals ~ it’s so fresh and happy, like new leaves popping out of the forest floor.
If you’re more bold, you can try brilliant emerald or grass green which looks great with white and black …
But if that just feels like too much for you, try your luck outside, green and white is a classic.
Or, if you really aren’t sure, you could just decorate your son, like I do every year at this time on his birthday (14 today! 
) .
That will give you a good sense of how lucky it feels to live with a little green!
