Are you loving the Emerald Green or are you already over it? I have to say, I think it’s a beautiful color but I feel like MINT has slowly taken over as the color of the year.
I love how mint is being incorporated into every style of home decor from shabby chic to industrial and even modern contemporary. No matter your style, there is a place for some mint! I’ve been playing around with some ideas for Miss E’s room so I thought I’d put together a list of Ways To Add Mint Into Your Home.

Have you been adding any mint into your home lately? Or do you think it will be a trend that comes and goes?

I love this inspiration, Taryn. I am really loving mint too. I’m playing around trying to incorporate it into my bedroom. I especially love the open frames really pretty!
Mint’s my fave! So glad it seems to be taking the stores by storm! It’s been all over the place in clothes too which had me ecstatic. My family was all able to get shades of minty goodness for family photos a few months back!
I love some mint, Taryn and these are great ideas!! Thanks for the awesome inspiration! Pinning! I have a couple of barstools that I’m thinking are gonna get some mint! Jenna @ Rain on a Tin Roof
I’ll never get tired of mint! This is a fabulous round up, Taryn! Thank you for featuring my buffet! I hope you enjoyed your Memorial Day weekend! xo
Love mint green. When I was little I always kept the sea green (which is so close to mint green) and coral crayons out of all of the 64 packs I had so nobody else would use them. So happy that some of my favorite colors are back in style. I love the Tonight We Are Young Pillow…now that song is totally stuck in my head ;)
Oh yeah, yummmmmy. It’s so close to light aqua too. I’m really loving light thru to darker shades of aqua with coral. The aqua and mint look gorgeous side by side. Love the open frames, I’m needing to do that with frames next on my shutter shelf (my rendition of a mantel). You have so many wonderful examples of how to use mint. Makes me drool. I’m very much a color person, gotta have it in my rooms. Nothing like keeping our senses wild. Take care and happy week
Oh I’m swooning Taryn- I so love this shade. Reminds me of the beach- which I miss so much. I would do all of these if I could work it in to our cabin decor.
I love mint but sadly there’s no place for it in my home. I try to incorporate it into my wardrobe or wear it on my fingers. I love all the inspiration pictures. Makes me want to rethink my color choices…
I love Mint! It has taken over my wardrobe but not my home. Not sure I like it for my house but I love all your examples!!!!!
