Feng Shui’s Five Elements — Wood, Fire, Earth, Metal and Water — bring the harmonies of nature into your environment.
Add Wood to your space when you want to encourage growth, flexibility and family harmony in your life.
Wood also ties in to your health — the roots of your well-being in the world.
Here are three ways to do add this vital element to your space:
Paint it green.
1. Green is the color for Wood, so the most straightforward thing to do is paint the walls a beautiful, subtle shade of green. Here the Wood is well-balanced with a red table that brings in the Fire element.
Add plants.
2. Wood is also present in plants and stripes.
The Metal element (the color White) is very strong in this kitchen, but the Wood in the plants and green-striped rug “cuts” the Metal, bringing it into balance.
Use vertical stripes.
3. Vertical stripes also add Wood to a space — but it’s a little overdone here, don’t you think
