September Color of the Month - Apple Green

I wasn't sure which color to highlight for this month.  With fall coming you typically think of oranges, yellows, and greens.  Yellow seemed much to bright, and I highlighted coral in July and mint green just last month.  So I checked out what HGTV was highlighting for the September color and decided they couldn't be wrong!  So my pick is for the month is:



What does green mean?  Green is typically thought of as the color of nature and healing.  Think how peaceful you feel when you are outside enjoying nature.  Green also symbolizes good luck, renewal, youth, generosity, fertility, jealousy, inexperience, envy, misfortune, and vigor.  People concerned about the environment use the term "going green."
 
Here are some of the lovely items that I found on Etsy and Pinterest.
