Think Green {again}

 

It would be quite strange if I let this week go by without sharing my favorite color green. It is St. Patty’s Week after all.

I adore the color green. I use it so much in my home as accessories in various rooms. Green is a calming colors and helps to bring the outdoors in.

I am loving the silk Southern arrangement of palmetto leaves and hydrangea on the stair parlor table.

  6. Hi Ron! Oh, everything at your home looks so pretty! I love the greens and the arrangement on the clock dial table is lovely. I adore that table and I'm swooning a bit over those lamps with the stripped shades too! Hope you're doing well and the weather is making you smile.
    Be a sweetie,

  8. Beautiful, as always. I too love pops of green (blue and green were my Granny's favorite colors and I think it rubbed off on me). Perfect for the anticipation of spring. I am oohing and aahing over those striped lamp shades as well. Perfection!!

  9. Thanks! The lamps are a 2005 purchase from Paris Market in Savannah. They were pricey but have never regretted the purchase. Love them:)
