From Garden to Bedroom: Soft Green & Earthy Bedding Looks for Summer
Breathe new life into your bedroom with calming green colors and nature-inspired textures
As the world outside comes alive with color, this summer invites you to bring that same energy indoors, starting with the color green. From sage and olive to mint and moss, green is the color of growth, calm, and renewal. Paired with earthy textures and soft fabrics, green bedding brings the serenity of the outdoors into your space.
Here’s how to design a bedroom that feels fresh, grounded, and beautifully summer-ready with green at its heart.

Why Green Is the Perfect Summer Color
No color reflects nature and balance like green. It evokes lush gardens, soft leaves, and early morning light. In the bedroom, it calms the mind, invites rest, and adds a seasonal glow. From soft sage to muted pistachio, green pairs well with every style from modern minimalist to warm cottagecore.
Even better? Green works like a neutral. It’s easy to layer with earthy tones, soft creams, or bolder accents like rust or mustard.
Bring The Green Garden To You...
Start With a Soft Green Foundation
Your summer refresh starts with your bed and there’s no better foundation than soft green bedding. Sage green bedding offers a gentle, versatile tone that feels cool in the heat and welcoming year-round. Ever Lasting’s Sage Cotton Bedding Set is perfect for layering or styling solo.
Try Ever Lasting Fabric’s Sophia Pastel Bedding Set or Madeleine Lace Double Gauze Ruffle Bedding Set as your starting layer. From there, build your palette with white, beige, warm grays, or even a soft clay for contrast.

Layer Earth Tones to Complement Green
While green sets the tone, it shines even brighter when layered with earthy neutrals. Think soft brown, clay, beige, or terracotta tones that reflect soil, sun, and sand. These pairings balance the freshness of green with natural warmth.
Earthy styling accents to try:
A woven rattan bench at the foot of your bed
Linen or cotton throw pillows in clay, oat, or ivory
A warm-toned bedside rug or ceramic decor

Add Floral and Botanical Touches Around Your Green Palette
Let your green bedding lead the aesthetic, and accent it with botanical touches—like floral embroidery, leaf motifs, or printed throw blankets. These add a garden feel without overpowering your look.
Ideas to try:
Pillowcases with stitched floral edges
A patterned green blanket with leaf shapes
Artwork featuring pressed plants or botanical illustrations
If you want to go a step further, fresh eucalyptus or dried lavender in a small vase can complete the look (and make your room smell amazing, too). Even one small floral accent next to green bedding makes your room feel blooming and fresh.

Decor Tips to Embrace the Green Aesthetic
To complete the look, sprinkle your space with decor that supports the green color story. From leafy plants to earthy decor, the goal is to create a bedroom that feels just as refreshing as a summer garden.
Green-inspired decor ideas:
Add a small plant near your window or bedside
Use natural wood trays or baskets to hold books or candles
Display pebbles, pressed flowers, or small garden treasures in a clear jar
And don’t forget your windows—sheer white curtains let in soft sunlight that brings your green palette to life.
