feeling greenby Natalie Bahadur |
I’m feeling a bit green today. Not eco-friendly, do-the-environment-a-spot-of-good green. Just green. Spring arrived somewhat anticlimactically last week and hasn’t been seen since. But inside, I’m ready for it, despite the fact that outwardly, I’m still bundled up in all my winter gear. So until spring decides to come out of hiding, I’m going to think green. It’s such a bright, cheerful colour, one that evokes feelings of life and rebirth, rejuvenation and new beginnings. Here are a few things to help add a dash of green to your home:

LOVE the colander. I have a similar white one, so the green would be a pretty match
I am loving all things green these days too! Can you recommend any nice subdued green paint colours (preferably by Benjamin Moore)? Thinking of painting my guest bedroom a light, sage green but I find paint swatches so daunting!
Hi Kate,
From Benjamin Moore’s collection, I like:
Stem Green
Irish Moss
Rosemary Green
Benjamin Moore has a virtual fan deck online that you can check out but it’s best to visit a store and check out the actual fan decks in natural light. Would love to know what you decide on. Send us pictures!
Hi love these green things…my favorit colors are
lime green, tangereen orang, caribeian blue…I am a
potter and these are the colors I like to use in my work.
people love them and are alway smiling when they see
them…and your pics make me feel happy and fresh and
summery…I live in a house with a lot of green. Dark
green Hunter I think in the kitchen, on the base bords.
and sage green walls…I moved into the place 5 or 6 years
ago and left them alone…only problem the people that
painted the walls panted over the wall paper….
not good…
