Green and yellow are a fantastic color combo that can be very versatile, can be integrated into many styles and themes and shows off two very natural colors, and all things natural is on top right now. If it seems to you that these are too bright for your space, that’s not so, they can be very different. Let me show you how to pull off these colors giving your home a lively summer feel or welcoming and warming fall vibe.
Green And Yellow Shades
Both colors have a lot of tones to choose from. While you can choose from a wide array of greens, the most popular are dark or hunter green, mint green, sage and emerald. As for yellow, mustard is the leader but you may try mellow yellow, zesty yellow and some other shades. What shades will look good together? Mustard and dark green, zesty yellow and mint green, sage and bright yellow, and you may find some more combos with various tones. What to add to the color scheme? White and creamy to calm down the colors, soem black or dark grey for a dramatic touch, or all the brights you like if you are creating a maximalist space. As yellow and green are natural colors, you may integrate them into an earthy color palette choosing calm and soothing shades.
Green And Yellow Accent Walls
An accent wall is always a good idea if you are sure of the color, it works in literally any space and with any style. It can be a plain yellow or green wall, or even a color block one, and make it even bolder with a gallery wall. Rocking a green and yellow wall in one space is a good idea, they will create a nice juxtaposition, and this is a nice solution if your room is small, they will distract attention from that. If you want to incorporate a pattern, too, you may go for printed wallpaper in yellow or green.
PRO tip: if you are renting or aren’t sure about the color, use removable wallpaper to create your accent wall.

Green And Yellow Furniture
Furniture is another way to integrate a color, and here you won’t need much work or drastic changes to add a splash of color. Buy or make a yellow chair, a sofa, a daybed or an ottoman and bring color to your room with it. If it’s a green sofa, add yellow pillows, and vice versa. If you are getting a yellow daybed, add green pillows and a blanket. Rugs, curtains and pillows are perfect for supporting the color scheme, they won’t break the bank. Don’t forget about such touches as artwork and smaller accessories like vases or candleholders, they are great, too.
PRO tip: if there’s no furniture you like, you can always reupholster the existing items, or repaint them a desired color. Here’s a bunch of tutorials on reupholstering to help you.
