Colour trend: Decorating with mint green

This pretty and subtle hue adds a soothing sense of style to any space.

Mint green is one of those yummy shades that add a fresh, playful element to a room. Not to be confused with aqua, a great example of this pastel hue can be found in jadeite dishware—those green plates and bowls that you often see peppered throughout antique markets. Nowadays however, mint green accessories are popping up everywhere. A few mint green throw pillows add a pop of whimsy to a Scandinavian-style room that’s all white and light hardwood floors. Mint green also pairs well with bright bursts of pink. And the contrast against dark wood creates a spa-like ambiance. Some companies are even bringing a retro style vibe to kitchens with ranges and refrigerators sporting this clean hit of colour. But if you're not quite into such a big statement, there are plenty of more subtle options that you can settle on. Here are 10 mint green decorating ideas we love!
