Blue and Green Color Inspiration

Posted 01/20/2010 by Rachel in Decor \ 5 comments

Hi there! I daydream about interior design and color combinations, so subsequently I'm always wanting to redecorate my house (which drives my husband crazy)! I love my husband and our 4 dogs, working in a creative field, a good laugh, and a great margarita. ;-)

I think we can grab inspiration from all around us, especially from nature.  When things are kind of bleak outside as they are now, it’s nice to recall the colors of green grass against the blue sky.  I think blue and green go so well together, from aqua and olive to kelly and sky blue!

Blue and green combinations can be so fresh.  They remind me of the spring that is (hopefully) just around the corner! 

What are some of your favorite color combinations?

    I love to see Tomato and Plum together, Lemon Yellow and Baby Blue. Turquoise and Red or Chocolate Brown and Red make yummy combinations. Oh, Olive Green, Lemon Yellow and Magenta -!- Apple Green, Navy and White…

    The combinations are endless!

    Thanks for the inspiration..

    LURVE these photos – especially the 2nd one, the bedroom. Such a beautiful green color on the wall!
