COLOR TREND: SAGE GREEN

Here are a few ways to show off your sage.

Gray continues to invade every space and surface of our homes as the modern-day neutral (aka beige replacement). But other hues continue to bubble up, providing options for those looking to inject a little personality into their space. The latest color trend: olive green.

"This cool, muted shade has been popping up everywhere, from our favorite bloggers' pads to the design magazines we pore over each month," Sage green is always a good choice, no matter the prevailing trends. "Sage green hues are perennially popular because they work like a neutral while still adding a little color to a space," they said. "They also come across as soothing."

Sage green kitchen cabinets play nice in a gourmet kitchen, pulling together high-end countertops, a rustic ceiling, and commercial stainless steel appliances.
