9 Ways to Decorate a Living Room with Mint Green
The mint green color combines blue and yellow with a variable portion of white to create darker to lighter shades. This color was prevalent in the 1950s with mid-century modern; we all remember the retro mint fridges. Yet, you don’t have to use this color only with mid-century modern decor. There are many ways to decorate our living room and refresh our homestyle with the soft pastel hue of mint green.
1
Accent Walls
Paint one or two walls mint green to create a focal point without overwhelming the space. Moreover, it’s a shade that you can easily combine with several other colors and create the homestyle of your preference.
Alternatively, instead of a mint green wall, you can experiment with an impressive wallpaper or mural.
