Emerald Green

The Pantone colour of the year for 2013 is Emerald green.

 I know every design blogger and their dog has already done a post about emerald green, but I just can't help putting my two cents in about the colour.

I was never a huge fan of green, but I am warming up to it; I especially like it paired with hits of black. I wrote a little bit about it here way back in the spring.

 This is how I would use emerald green--in small doses. Anything more than this I would tire of quickly.

Emerald, black and gold are the perfect combination.



Awhile ago I noticed this table over at the CB2's site and I filed it away for future use.  I thought it was a great little piece to add a dose of green to a space. I am thinking of using it for one of the boys' bedrooms when we move to the new house.

Also fun in a family room or playroom.

 I have found a few more inspirational shots to share with you.

  I like the little bits of green in the lamp and chair.

 Definitely a fun colour for a child's room.

I love the pairing of green and black, but way to busy for me.
