When you think of December colors, the shades that come to mind are likely rich greens, deep reds, and luxurious golds – the colors you traditionally associate with the festive season. However, if you follow the monthly birthstones and their associated hues, December’s shade leans more summery than seasonal.
Turquoise, a vivid green-blue, brings to mind tranquil tropical waters and warmer climates. But to call it a summer-only shade is to limit it, because turquoise is more versatile and varied than just its brightest form. As with any bolder color, the best way to incorporate it into your home is to choose more nuanced versions – the slightly muted shades that maintain its uplifting nature while offering a little less of its lively vibrancy.
