Dark Green Paint Colors & Autumnal Green Inspiration

While I can’t claim to know my way around a deep Emerald green or moody teal paint color with any confidence, that won’t stop us from exploring the beauty of Dark Green Paint Colors & Autumnal Green Inspiration. This whole green collection was inspired by designer, Sherry Hart, who guest posted here a few seasons back and attempted to woo me over to the dark side…ha! That creative genius can always be trusted behind the color wheel as you will see from inspiration below.

It feels natural to turn our attention to a deep and moody green color as the days grow shorter and the temperatures dip.

Inspirational quote from Mary Oliver poem about worry. #inspirationalquote #quotes #maryoliver #poetry

Dark greens and teal evoke for me magical forests in autumn, soaring pines in winter, and evergreen wonder.

    I’m trying to get my nerve up to paint color on my guest room walls but oh, I so love all the white. It’s such an ethereal feeling. The Green Smoke by Farrow & Ball is quite lovely. I’m going to keep that one in my back pocket.

    The Bouquets are all gorgeous and gives one a good optic into colors to use in your green rooms. Just look to nature!

    If I still worked, or had a more impressive social life, I would love the pencil skirt and Tweed jacket. Gorgeous! And, that is coming from someone who never wears green. I wonder why that is. 🤔

      I want those things too! That tweed moto jacket is so genius and would look great with everything! I’m also trying to decide what to paint a guest room wall, and I’m thinking pale pink or maybe light grey with my Fortuny stencil. Thanks for playing along. 🙂

    green is not only the color for hope….a green kitchen in moss cottage or vintage vogue is my dream but I also like khaki green in fashion. It’s a color you can mix it with white at best but also ocre, lilac, pale rose and of course blue
    is beautiful. All mix depend on the basic of green. Finally I thank you for your relentless work on your blog, in particular the always beautiful quotes in which you search. Enjoy all the green today perhaps tomorrow will be pink

    I’m in love with the dark teal cabinets and green walls in the kitchen picture. The Little Greene’s Ho Ho Green is the wall color. What is the color on the cabinets? And where can I buy the paint? Thank you!

      Hi there. It is a gorgeous teal and appears to be Borough Market (Mylands Paint) in the UK or something very similar. For a comparable color in the USA, take a look at Valspar Everglade Deck. Let me know if you need more suggestions for this teal and happy hunting!

          Farrow & Ball worked with Charlotte Reiss of Vivi et Margot on her French farmhouse kitchen so you may want to shoot them an email so they can enlighten.

      While I don’t know the finish used by the designers – it is likely a semigloss on trim and cabinets and flat for walls. The best way to make a decision is by starting with samples. Here’s the F&B Green Smoke: https://rstyle.me/+LG9uZWQNWqDOWKwu7jOoIg
