THINGS I LIKE

COLOR WATCH: MINT GREEN

... not just reserved for your ice cream anymore, this subtle pastel is popping up all across the trend spectrum for spring. Fresh and fun, mint can certainly add a jolt of life to any space [or outfit]- even if its just in the form of a few great candlesticks!



this bookshelf is the perfect example of bringing a little color into a calm space without overwhelming it...


outdoor mesh balloon chairs? yes, please!

  2. I'm in love with mint green. My great-grandmother had her paneled living room walls painted a mint hue and it was so, so gorgeous. She also had in there highback chairs and a collection of vintage Emily Post books. Yes, it was as stunning as it sounds! She had sooo much style :)

  3. I keep seeing green since the new year. It's not one of my favorite colors but looking these pics I might have to reconsider.

    You'll love it and I have that last room but from a different angle. I'm glad I got to see it at this angle.
    Do you know who did by chance?
