How to decorate with Pantone’s Colour of the Year 2017
Pantone, the global authority on colour, has decreed Greenery the Colour the Year 2017, and they describe the hue as, "A fresh and zesty yellow-green shade that evokes the first days of spring when nature’s greens revive, restore and renew."
We share five ways to bring this refreshing and reinvigorating colour into your home:
1) Plants
The obvious way to bring Greenery into your home is with foliage. Be it cut flowers, pot plants or even a living wall, bring nature in for an instant transformation with minimal effort and cost.
2) Feature wall
A feature wall painted in Greenery will give your space instant drama and depth. Strategically placed furniture will work wonders against this wall, so pick your favourite pieces and give them a refreshed and striking backdrop.
3) Accessories
If you’re not 100% convinced about this colour yet, trickle it in slowly with accessories. Greenery is particularly effective on textiles and in glassware, and we’re sure that with a couple of pieces around, you’ll be a convert in no time.
4) Wall decals
Greenery is a great gender neutral colour, so now you have the perfect excuse to makeover your kids’ room. Why not start small with a leafy vinyl wall decal?
5) Wallpaper
For those of you as crazy about Greenery as we are, take the plunge and invest in a Greenery-inspired wallpaper – not only will it be a guaranteed talking point, but it’ll also bring a freshness and new energy into your home for years to come.
