March...
The first day of spring. Longer days. New growth, buds on trees and flowers. Yellow daffodils and crocus' popping up here and there. A time for new beginnings.
Now is the perfect time to "think green". This month we are talking about how we can bring fresh, bright and healing green into our homes!
There are many types of green. Green symbolizes nature, new beginnings, and has a calming, healing effect. Bright, vibrant greens can be energetic and motivating.
Natural Green-
Bring green in with natural plants.
Plants add calming nature, they are fresh and bring in a life.

Dark Green makes a statement.
Add a dark green couch with dark green walls. Create a sort of "cocoon" space to relax and linger.
Copper is the perfect accent.
