Green is now synonymous with environmental awareness, but let’s not forget, it’s a great color, too. Fellow CalFinder blogger Anna mentioned once that whenever you pass the occasional, eye-popping fluorescent green house, you can’t help wondering what the homeowner was thinking. Fluorescent green exterior paint aside, green can be a modern, quirky, eclectic, even earthy accent or focal point. That’s why this Green Wednesday post is dedicated to ideas on going green, literally.

If you’re gonna go there, why not go all the way? Yes, even a bathroom sink can be green. This one is part of Vitruvit’s Ethnic collection.

Don’t these green chairs look charming against an all-white kitchen? Chrome plated and made of woven paper rattan, they’ve got a natural feel and contemporary appeal.

Direct Green Paint by Sherwin-Williams

I like the way this shade doesn’t try to be inconspicuous. It’s not a forest green or a light mint cop-out. Here’s how it looks in the kitchen. It’s got some energy to it. I can imagine this color in a living room, too.
