Yesterday my daughter had a play date with another little girl and they got hooked on the colour green. The two girls kept saying ‘green’ louder and louder and then bursting in to fits of laughter. They then started adding an extra word and coming up with things like ‘green toast’, ‘green dog’… the idea being to pair it with something that most definitely isn’t green. This produced more laughter and eventually the inevitable bathroom humour ensued followed by the loudest giggles ever! I don’t know how 4 year old minds work but I do know this little game tickled them pink! While I didn’t take part in the game, it did get me thinking of the colour green and I realised I’d never done a green post. I always think that green isn’t a colour I’m naturally drawn to but then again there are so many shades of it that there really is a green for everyone (my personal favourite is mint green) and so I thought it would be fun to look for a few things in different shades of green and here’s what I found:
1. green linen sunsuit by wolfechild… 2. minty green toddler duvet set by garbo & friends… 3. forest green firs pillowcase by fine little day… 4. shades of green bird poster by silke bonde… 5. ice-cream green playhouse by lucky boy sunday… 6. dark green book called Grandpa Green by Lane Smith.
Happy weekend all and see you next week!
Beautiful things
Thank you 🙂
Green’s a colour that’s grown on me as I get older. I wear quite a lot of green now & I’ve started decorating rooms green. Lovely combination of things you’ve chosen.
Thank you. And yes that’s exactly how I feel about green… it’s a colour that’s grown on me.
LOVE green, so easy for kids rooms. Tipped to be the new dark blue/grey…
Green has kind of grown on me over the years and yes I can see it totally working in a kids room especially since there are so many greens to choose from.
I love what amuses young children! My Mum never uses the colour green as she thinks its unlucky but I think the colour – particularly mint – is very soothing. You’ve chosen some beautiful things. Thank you for linking to PoCoLo and welcome, hope to see you back next week xx
Thanks for stopping by. Never heard that before… green being unlucky. But you live and learn something new everyday! Thanks for PoCoLo too!
