Today I’m excited to share a giveaway with my blog readers! I’ll give you the details further down this post, but here’s a hint: the giveaway is related to teal and lime decor.
Last year Shades of Light cover page featured a vignette of teal and lime.
I’ve kept that picture as an inspiration, knowing I wanted to incorporate the look into my decor one day. Recently that day came and I painted an accent wall in our piano room teal.
The color is Benjamin Moore’s Beau Green, # 2054-20. . At nightime, the piano room has a glam sparkle to the wall because of the paint finish. The finish I used was BM’s Regal Select Paint in Semi-Gloss. I really wanted the high gloss sheen but each gallon is very expensive when you add more gloss to an interior wall paint. The semi-gloss turned out to have plenty of gloss and still has the lacquer look I was going for.
Please note that this type of gloss looks best on flat , non-textured walls. If your walls have any type of orange peel texture, then the gloss won’t look right. Gloss shows imperfections in texture or lumps.
Turquoise is the sister to teal and these colors just make me feel good! Adding a citrus touch of lime to the palette is a great accent.
Kravet’s Windsor Smith’s Archipelagos fabric in lime, is a great accent color to use in a teal room:

We love the "coastal" look and I love everything you have done with your home. I event have a blog about going coastal in a non-coastal town (Austin):). I love the rose pillow. There are different shades of blue and green all over our house and this would be a great addition. Glad to have found your blog and I look forward to following!

Loved the spread of on your house from House of Turquoise blog!
And those pillows? AWESOME. I actually like both, but am partial to Maine Cottage's Mod Rosie pattern cause it has blue in it!
I love light blue/teal/turquoise. I mix it with brown usually. In different rooms, I add accents of Red, Orange and Light Green.
Now? I totally want to do some lime and teal! Haven't finished my house (I'll never get there I'm sure).
Beautiful fabrics! Would love the Archipelago pillow!
