{Green With Envy}

Lately I have seen a 'green' trend floating around and I must say, I am quite taken by this colour. So many lovely shades all of which create a completely different feel to a space.

{olive green} is soft and feminine, creating a sense of 
calm and peacefulness.


Whereas {asparagus green} is rather stately and refined.


{jade green} on the other hand is bright, bold
and definitiely brilliant. 


Which green takes your fancy? 

I'm quite taken with asparagus green myself!

    The simple touches of olive in that kitchen are nice, and WOW the asparagus is just LOVELY.

    I love them both! I'm a big green fan. I wear quite a bit of it but I've yet to use it in decor. You have me thinking :)

    I'm sort of smitten with all of them! Green is the one color that we decided to spread throughout the house to connect the rooms, and I love it!

    Truth be told, I love them all! ... as well as the images you've shown. The last one, featuring Designer's Guild really caught my eye. Such a luscious look. Thank you for the inspiration...

    Hope you're having a fun weekend :)

    I think for me it depends on which shade of green where/ or on what. Probably a fairly bright pea green is my fav though....I think! :-)

    Hope you're having a great weekend!
