Looking for something a little more rustic? Try painting your furniture in an olive green and distressing the edges for an antique feel.
This is the perfect way to add some Old World charm to your bedroom. Add brass hardware for an extra touch of luxury, or keep things simple with ceramic knobs.

How do I choose the right shade of green for my furniture?
Choosing the right shade of green for your furniture can be a bit overwhelming with so many options available. To narrow down your choices, consider the overall style and color scheme of your space.
For a more traditional or elegant look, opt for deep shades of green like emerald or forest. If you want to add a touch of playfulness or whimsy, lighter shades like mint or olive green can do the trick.
If you’re unsure which shade will work best, try creating a mood board with different shades of green and pair them with your existing decor.
This will give you a better idea of how each shade will look in your space before committing to painting your furniture. Here’s our list of the best green furniture paint to help you decide the perfect shade of green for your next project!
Can I mix and match green with other colors in my furniture?
Absolutely! In fact, mixing and matching green with other colors can create a beautiful and unique look for your furniture.
Green pairs well with neutral tones like white, gray, and beige for a more classic look.
For a bolder statement, try pairing green with vibrant colors like pink, yellow, or blue. When done right, this combination can add a fun pop of color to any room.
You can also balance the other colors with green by incorporating them in smaller accents like pillows, rugs, or wall art.
Too much bold color can overwhelm the space and take away from the beauty of your green furniture. So you can go ahead and mix and match, just keep in mind to create a balanced look!
