Did you hear the news? We're just a couple months into 2013, and I'm already seeing the color emerald everywhere! I've got a darling new emerald wallet, and several other emerald items on my wish list to prove it! Are you loving green as much as I am?

1. Choose to go big. Be daring. Be bold. Paint the walls a rich emerald hue, throw up emerald wall paper, or purchase an emerald sofa or chair.

Not quite that in love with the color? Don't want to make it such a permanent part of your home?
