Sage Green on Folksy
We got talking about colour psychology earlier this month - isn't it fascinating the way colour can dramatically affect our behaviours and emotions? ⁠ Sage green is often associated with nature, tranquillity and balance and represents growth and harmony. Just a few minutes of looking at the grey-green hues of this soothing tone can promote a sense of calmness, relaxation and renewal. ⁠ ⁠ Sink into a blissful moment of relaxation as you explore these sage beauties. ⁠ We feel calmer already. 😌

Feathers on journals and colourful macrame - these are a few of our (makers') favourite things.⁠ ⁠ One day each month, we ask our lovely sellers to tell us their ONE favourite piece in their shop. Take a look at what they've chosen in the Theme of the Day on the Folksy homepage, but you'll have to be quick - our seller favourites are up for one day only before our theme changes tomorrow!⁠
