Mint Green

Mint green is a lovely mixture of yellow and blue with generous helpings of white. This hue signals spring’s arrival and evokes freshness, which is why this soft, agreeable shade is popular for wedding attire and decorations. It can be seen in bridesmaids’ dresses, as trim for bouquets, and in decorative details at post-wedding celebrations. In spring, this striking hue can be found anywhere from flowing dresses to blouses to handbags and shoes. However, this tone really shines when used for interiors. Mint green has a gentle vintage feel that is a welcoming addition in interior design. It is especially at home in bathrooms, kitchens, and dining areas. To give rooms a feeling of bygone eras, paint this hue on walls as a focal point to any room, or use it as an accent hue with throws, pillows, and plants in this energetic shade. Mint green pairs nicely with neutrals, such as beige and white. Silver accents look beautiful with this color. It’s also a fun one to pair with gray and brighter shades of green for a monochromatic vibe.
