I’m such a fan of Brooke Giannetti, and she uses green a lot in her spaces. The subtle touches here are just perfect! And what if you are not a fan of green? Or, maybe you like it, but you don’t want to change too much or make that big of a commitment. If you have neutral or white interiors, you can incorporate green the natural way with plants or flowers.

I know what you mean Shelley! We all focus on the things that are easier or quicker – but not always the things that need the most because they are more daunting!
Happy Weekend to you too!

Dear Sheila, I, too, am delighted that "green" is "back". I have been using green for years because it reminds me of the outdoors. When home fabric stores started to discontinue it a few years back, I snapped up everything I liked at rock bottom prices. What is especially great for me is that we are putting our home on the market this year and now my 30 year old decor will seem to be on trend!
Seriously, I use the colors and fabrics I like (typically quite classic) and careo about no one other than my family's opinion. I design my home for comfort and beauty not to impress design snobs.
The last 8 years have been dull, grey and depressed. I think that without realising it, the design industry has been influenced by the breath of fresh air and sense of renewal that has begun to sweep through our country.

LOVE these gorgeous examples – and I am thrilled as well! You are right, when something is "in" it is so much easier to find things in that color. I have been making lists of things I want to change in my house and lately have been focused on the living room…which makes no sense because my family room and dining room definitely need more attention than my living room! But I just need to switch out two or three things in my living room and I can be done! The other two rooms…ugh, well, they need a little more attention. Anyway, I am thinking about green as well so I am happy it will be easier to shop now. Enjoy your weekend!
