Using olive green in your home

Olive Green is forgiving, but it can go dull without contrast. Use it in kitchens, dens, bedrooms, entries, or exterior doors with cream trim, black, walnut, clay, or aged brass. North light can make Pale Thistle and Muted Moon look grayer. South light brings out the yellow green warmth. Watch golden oak. Oak can make Olive Green look heavier and more military than intended.
