Gregory's Den by earthborn is great, really soft, have it in South west facing kitchen.

Mine’s sort of teal/duck egg so depends on your eyes whether you see it as blue or green. I really like it - makes the room very calm and also look quite big. I have the Mumsnet sin of a feature wall (well, chimney) too. Light no good for photos right now.

TheFuckfaceWhisperer · 17/03/2019 18:41

The photo doesn't really do the colour justice but mine is like a sage green

F&B cooking apple - love it fresh and mellow ......also have a south east facing room french grey - love that as well cooler and more depth ..
also a south facing room a wickes pain - called meadow - not quite as good but ok ...is only one wall

i like green :) south facing I would usually say yellow tone green as often can look a bit blue (F&B green blue dreadful!)

Recently decorated our living / diner in Farrow and Ball Lichen. Beautiful colour which looks anything from light to quite dark sagey green depending on sunlight/time of day.

We have Farrow and Ball green smoke, little greene Normandy grey and Farrow and ball studio green in various rooms. Green smoke is especially lovely.

I love f and b arsenic

CoddledAsAMommet · 17/03/2019 19:09

I love green, especially dark greens. We have a Victorian terrace. The living room is done (the whole room, no feature wall for us!) In William Morris Blackthorn wallpaper. It's absolutely gorgeous. I love it as much now as when we decorated 8 years ago. It was a bold choice but everyone loves it.

ichbineinstasumer · 17/03/2019 19:11

my favourite green now stolen by various family members: Goosberry Fool 5 (Dulux). I don't actually have it in my living room but almost everywhere else.

RockinHippy · 17/03/2019 19:25

Ours is a pale, soft retro looking mint green, with wood floors, wood/glass doors, white paintwork, black leather sofas & leopardskin & a bit of red as accessories etc. It's a nice colour to live with, very calming.

I can't get a photo as I have a living room full of junk, due to having an attic clear out, plus it's dark, so won't show the colour well. 🤷🏼‍♀️

SirBobblyofSock · 17/03/2019 19:26

Yes, Card Room by F&B and it looks lovely

KeptTheBeachesShipwreckFree · 17/03/2019 19:29

Ours is cream with a hint of green in the pattern on the wallpaper. We have a cream carpet (not our choice with 2 dc, it was there when we moved in) and a brown settee. It's a tiny room (10x8ft) but the colour and big window makes it feel much bigger.

Rosie1976mini · 17/03/2019 19:31

Green and grey wallpaper :)

This is our bedroom. Super dark green. May not be to everyone's taste but I love it! Its a valspar paint as f and b were either too light or not green enough. ( Just a small part of the room so no clutter seen!)

Have a look at Ladyland on Instagram- she has a green living room. Also look at Max made me do it - she loves a bit of green and pink x

IamEarthymama · 17/03/2019 19:52

All our paintwork in the living room is F&B Cooking Apple, with white walls and furniture painted in Smoked. Sage green silk curtains.
I would have green walls but I live in a tiny terraced house with mountains all around and we don't get much light.

The kitchen is Lime Green on one wall.

I love green, so lots of plants and twigs, a grievous sin on MN. 😉😊

Loving the pictures pp have shared!

bilbodog · 17/03/2019 20:13

My front door and kitchen cupboards are F & B churlish green which i love. Am going to paint my sitting room this colour next time we re-do it.

CatsMother66 · 17/03/2019 20:45

F&B Churlish Green in living room but only on one wall.

Fand B French grey. About to do dining room ball green

Baconislife · 17/03/2019 21:33

Lots of inspiration.
Think I will go for one wall with cream or white on the others.
Thanks

Ours is good old Dulux Crushed Aloe on one wall and Goosedown on the other walls. We have sage green voiles in the bay.

Snap we have green smoke on the chimney breast with lime white on the rest of the walls.
