Shades of Green

No, these shades of green have NOT been specifically chosen to complement each other!!What they do however, is show how many shades of every colour there are.
About to start decorating.Thank goodness for shade cards!It was our aim to decorate and refurbish our main bedroom before Xmas.Whilst mooching around looking for suitable furnishings,my hubby got his eye on an antique desk he liked.As he doesn't often have opinions OR desires,I decided, along with the rest of the family to purchase the afore mentioned desk, bankers chair, and bookcase for his birthday.So, now we have TWO rooms to decorate before Xmas!!!!!!!
Hey, adding this picture to my ever growing journal this morning has just alerted me to the fact that I have hardly been outside this house in 11 days!Only one outdoor photograph to display.Ah well, there is always the weekend ahead.
So, to save me getting too involved in the work going on upstairs and to while away the hours downstairs,I started thinking of songs connected to the colour GREEN.Here are a few I came up with, most of which, on refelction. kinda show my age!
