9 Home Decor Finds that Will Change Your Mind About the Pantone Color of the Year

The Pantone Color Institute named its 2017 Color of the Year, "Greenery," early Thursday morning, and in the hours since, aesthetes the world over have reacted with mixed reviews of the "zesty" yellow-green. But the chorus of ew's has become more of a custom than a lasting outrage: Last year's pale pink and blue pairing was initially deemed too "nursery." First reactions to 2015's wine-inspired red-brown, "Marsala," claimed it was muddy.

Whether you're already in love with the fresh, spring-like green or need some convincing, take a peek at these decor finds that take the Color of the Year from the swatch book to the real world and see if you don't feel a bit calmer by the end.
