The Green Theme!

I can't deny that I am loving the strong presence of green in all the latest magazines.  The latest House Beautiful is even called the "The Green Issue" - perfection!

Mixed with blue is always a striking combination...

This little green chair is simply devine...

and I absolutely must have this bed...

Even touches of green (picture from Veranda Magazine) lift this room to another level. Hope you are all loving it as much as I am!  T xx
