Green is a symbol of freshness and harmony.
Decorate your bedroom in green and balance it with colors that make the room an oasis. A green bedroom decor can be shades of kelly green, grass green, olive green or lime green. When green is the foundation, it will enhance almost any other color you bring into the space.
Green Walls and White Molding
Paint your walls in the shade of green you like, and paint the baseboards a shade of off-white. Paint the same off-white color on strips of molding and attach the molding all around the room at the ceiling edges. Hang floor-to-ceiling silk or synthetic silk curtains in a slightly darker shade of green than the walls.
Green Area Rug
Paint the walls stark white and put a very large, green area rug on the floor, something comfortable for your feet to step on in the morning. Put a geometric work of art in a green theme above the headboard, and paint the headboard white. Buy pillows covered in large floral prints for the head of the bed.
Chartreuse
Chartreuse is a bold shade of green that blends well with aqua. Paint your walls chartreuse, hang curtains with a chartreuse background and a white or aqua print. Paint your bed frame in chartreuse and balance it with aqua bed linens.
Shabby Chic
Choose paint in the palest shade of sage green, and paint your walls with it. Hang white, gauzy curtains and matching pale green bed linens. Find vintage fabrics with shades of pale pink and pale green, and sew up some pillow covers and side table linens with the material. Put a faded, floral antique hooked rug on the floor.
Mix-It-Up Kitsch
Find fabric prints with green backgrounds. Make a bedspread and shams with the material. Choose another shade of for a side table and another green print for a chair slipcover. Find green ceramic table lamps of different eras (such as art deco and antique floral globe lamps). Hang green gingham curtains, and paint the walls a very pale, cool shade of mint.
