A "Pinch" of Green {Color Inspiration}

Happy St. Patty's Day All! The Hubs and I usually go out and have a green beer or two just for fun, but this year is going to be BORING! We have appointments till late tonight for work, so we will have to celebrate a different day. (At least I painted my nails green so I won't get pinched!)

I am a huge fan of the color green and not just because it is St. Patrick's Day.  In fact, I believe it is my favorite color. I don't have a lot of green in my home, but somehow I feel connected to that color because it reminds me of the outdoors. I love how nature gives us so many shades of green to inspire us. Don't you?

I am not one to overwhelm myself with the color green, but instead add a touch or a "pinch" of green here and there throughout my spaces. I think these inspirational pictures will give you an idea how to add touches of green without going overboard.

What are your thoughts on the color green? Have you added a splash of it somewhere in your home or are you the bold one that has painted a whole wall, cabinet or room?

Front Door Color- NEED YOUR VOTES!!

Happy Friday! Do you have a lot planned this weekend? We do! I mean....does it really ever stop!?

I have a plan to get the front of my house in tip top shape this weekend! I haven't even planted anything in my pots or bought new cushions for my wicker chairs and here we are at the end of April! (I think it is because my mother-in law didn't come down to help me this spring!)

Since I am sprucing up the front porch, I was thinking of adding a little punch of color to the front door. I am a little nervous about this because I usually don't go crazy with color except in accents. But currently my front door looks like this:

Yep...Black and Boring! I don't mind it, but I think our door looks like everyone else's in the neighborhood. I guess that is why they call it a "cookie cutter" neighborhood? Well...I am determined to be the different one!

So here are a few of my choices.  I NEED YOUR HELP!! (In no particular order!)

Which color is your favorite? Which one do you think will work best with the front of my home?

I am going to try and paint it on Sunday as soon as I hear from all of you!

Happy Weekend All!
