It's not easy...

"When green is all there is to be, it can make you wonder why, but why wonder? I'm green and it'll do fine, it's beautiful, and I think it's what I want to be. Someday you'll find it, the rainbow connection, the lovers, the dreamers, and me. It's not easy being green."

I think Kermit says it best (and seriously, if you've never seen this video, it's a necessity for life's success and self realization and all that good stuff).

Kermit the Frog sure speaks some profound words.
Although green is not my favorite color, I think it looks so beautiful in the rooms above. It's definitely a cheerful color.

Marie said...

Green is my most favorite color, so thank you for the loveliness galore!~ That apple green dining room is fantastic and inspiring!

Kermit rocks! I've always had a bit of a green crush on that sweet little guy! :)

Unknown said...

I love Kermie. And those pictures!

Diana said...

Kermit can be the next Gandhi, seriously.

Green is such a soothing color psychologically, so maybe Jim Henson did it on purpose...?

Chartreuse is making a huge splash in home interiors and I think I like it. Mr. Kermit how I love you and no it's not easy being green..too cute!

Unknown said...

I love green! That second picture makes me all happy. That ribbon board is amazing!!

drollgirl said...

yay for kermit, and yay for green. i used to have such an aversion to green, and then i got a clue and started wearing more of it, and using it in my home. and it is a good thing. :)

flynn said...

Rachel said...

So much to say about that first kitchen. That ceiling, the cabinets, those chairs. *sigh*

Iva Messy said...

I like green a lot. Especially lime green and forest green...I know I know, two totally different greens! YAY for Kermit! Such a funny little dude! hehe.

I love the first and third pictures!

I hope you had a great long weekend! :0)

Hudson's sitting here behind me, bouncing up and down going Froggy, froggy! So I'll leave my comment then we'll watch the video.

But those are all gorgeous photos. I love the idea of three paper lanterns strung in a row. And that second photo...the entryway. LOVE.

Michelle Marie said...

Awww I love this! I'm wearing a very early 60s looking kermit green dress today that I wasn't sure I was going to keep. I am so happy I chose to keep it and I absolutely love this colour in interior design. Green lately has been making a big come back!

I'm loving green lately. lime green touches here and there... :)

Keith said...

Great photos. I love those. Kermit is awesome.

Kristen said...

I just love that Kermit bit... And the song Rainbow Connection was one of the first songs I could really play on the piano. I used to sit and play and sing my lungs out. Mind you, I can't sing on key to save my life and yet my mom let me carry on for hours...
I also adore the color green. My family room is lots and lots of green shades, and my eyes are green too and I am starting to love them more as I get older.

Swetha said...

I love Green... its my favorite color! thanks for the sweet post!i loved all the pictures:)

Marsi @ The Cottage Cheese said...

Yay, you've made me SO happy! Kermit can teach us a lot about life. Thanks so much for sharing this video. "The Rainbow Connection" was my absolute favorite song as a kid, and I'd still rank it in my top ten. Fabulous rooms - the kitchen with the green cabinets is just dreamy!

Aline said...

I think that you just inspired my next diy! I love that large frame with the ribbons on the second photo!!!

Blair Friedeman said...

Really loving chartreuse! Lovely photos.

Haven and Home said...

Love Kermit and Love all these rooms!

Sierra said...

WOW, I can't get over the green on that wall, it looks great! He he, Kermit made me laugh, thanks for that. Hope you had a great weekend!

Waxy said...

Great photos! And gotta love Kermie of course!

Felicia|DaLipstickBandit said...

I really like the wallpaper...and the touches of green but i don't think i could go on the lime side of things...although, part of my dining room is a sage color.. :)
