Fern Green

Fern green is a dark and saturated shade of green fashioned after the leaves of houseplants, palm fronds and, of course, ferns. As an earthy tone, fern green is the most vibrant when next to other natural hues such as earthy browns, muted blues, and golden yellows. Use this color combination in your kitchen to create a space that is warm, inviting, and a bit rustic in nature. Fern green can also be a playful color. Pair it with white and sky blues to breathe life into any space. Add blush pink touches via pillows, throw blankets, and flowers for much-needed contrast. If you want to create a space that feels crisp and modern, pair fern green with black and white. Incorporate gold or bronze fixtures for a touch of elegance, and top a table with bright red-orange flowers for contrast. Though many homeowners are hesitant to decorate with any shade of green, know that you cannot really go overboard with this muted natural shade. Paint an entire room fern green or keep it limited to a single wall. Give your bathroom cabinets a coat or, if you know you're committed, paint your floors this shade. Green has a way of awakening the senses and energizing the soul, which you'll discover once you become freer with your fern green décor.
