7 Ways to Incorporate Pantone's 2017 Color of the Year in Your Home
Pantone, the world-renowned authority on color, just announced their 2017 color of the year.
It’s called Greenery. Pantone says this zesty color “signals consumers to take a deep breath, oxygenate and reinvigorate." It’s a hue that is meant to “evoke the first days of spring when nature's greens revive, restore and renew.” Looking for some inspiration on how to add Greenery to your home decor? Check out these spaces that may make you green with envy.

1. Through Nature

The easiest, most inexpensive way to add the color Greenery to your home is simply with greenery. For a dramatic effect that requires little effort, go to the florist and get a single frond and place it in a simple vessel.
2. With Linens

If you’re not ready to commit to painting your walls in Greenery, start with window treatments and pillows. Here, the energetic burst of color provides artistic style to the neutral gray and white space.
3. It's Good Feng Shui

Green is a good color for kitchens. According to some feng shui experts, green promotes digestion. If you want just a touch of Greenery, add it via useful items like utenstils, canisters, oven mitts and dish towels.
4. In the Youngsters' Space

Greenery is a nice choice for gender-neutral kids’ rooms or playrooms. Here, a green stripe of chalkboard paint allows the kids to be creative without fear of ruining the walls.
5. Enchance an All-White Space

A neutral sofa paired with a bold side chair can result in a high-end designer look. If buying a new chair is not in your budget, consider painting your old one.
