16 pistachio & matcha green home décor ideas

We’re always being told to eat our greens but this season, it’s time to decorate with them too! Homeware stores and online retailers are awash with two predominant shades of green: matcha and pistachio.

These big flavour profiles have successfully crossed over from the culinary world into interior design. They bring with them earthy vibrancy, natural qualities and associations with wellbeing – what’s not to like?

If you’re wondering how you can incorporate matcha and pistachio when you next decorate, here are 16 ways to go on-trend green.

1. Change your window dressings – a new blind is a great way to introduce colour, especially in kitchens and bathrooms: Try this: Maala roman blind in Pistachio by Blinds Direct.

2. Buy new towels for your bathroom – the matcha and pistachio hues are the perfect complement to white bathroom suites. Try this: Christy’s Prism Turkish cotton towels in Mojito. 

3. Switch your lampshades - give your bedside, floor standing and console table lamps a completely new look. Try this: Olive green pleated Ikat lampshades from Graham & Green.

4. Give pasta a pistachio edge – plain white crockery is out, coloured bowls are in, with more than a hint of spring green. Try this: Stockholm Green stoneware pasta bowls from ProCook.

5. Paint a feature wall – inject some vibrancy into an otherwise neutral room by painting one wall a shade of matcha or pistachio. Try this: Home Grown – an organic green from Coat. 

6. Upgrade your tea making – give away anything that’s mismatched or chipped and replace with something greener. Try this: set of four mugs with a pistachio stripe, from John Lewis.

7. Snuggle down on-trend – a lightweight blanket is essential for chilly evenings on the sofa or in the garden, so why not make it green? Try this: fleece blanket in Light Moss from Dunelm.

8. Add a rug – stop feeling bored with your floors by adding a green rug to your bedroom or living room. Try this: Savannah rug in Pistachio from Gooch.

9. Give your glassware a makeover – tinted glassware is everywhere this season, with some designs too good to hide away! Try this: ribbed glass tumbler in Pistachio, from John Lewis.

10. Freshen up your flower displays – we’re coming into cut flower season and a new vase is an easy way to introduce matcha green. Try this: Green striped vase from Matalan.

11. Repot houseplants – plants are a shortcut to adding a splash of green but you can double your efforts by choosing a matching pot. Try this: Nettleton plant pot from Feather & Twigs. 

12. Go all out with wall art – a quick swap of the artwork in your frames allows you to embrace green without redecorating. Try this: Matcha Green Pantone print poster available at Etsy.

13. Scatter all the cushions – beige or cream sofa? Fall in line with green fashion by adding scatter cushions. Try this: large embroidered scallop cushion in green from M&S. 

14. Wise up to green wax – some candles are coloured green, others are also made with matcha beeswax for a scent too. Try this: Matcha green tea dining candles at Tate Shop.

15. Wallpaper a small room – give tiny spaces - cloakrooms, studies or utilities – a big personality with green wallpaper. Try this: Standen Wallpaper in Light Green by Morris & Co.

16. Keep trinkets tidy – whether added to your bedroom or living room, a decorative tray is a great way of keeping treasured items together. Try this: scalloped tray in Olive from Amazon.
