The Basics
What are people saying about this color?
Evoking the spring rains that bring the first cuttings of bright green color from the ground, Saybrook Sage has an herbacious color you can almost smell. It’s earthy, it’s bright but it’s not overly powerful and it can be the perfect color for your bedroom.
This green is definitely a warmer, creamy and almost pastel green so it pairs really nicely with a warm or off white trim.

To maintain a mostly neutral color scheme, opt for creamy shades of white and metallics like rose gold to add richness and warmth to the coolness of sage green, suggests San Diego-based interior designer Susan Spath.” bhg.com
