Lively mint green accent wall in a dining room

If you’re searching for a bright and uplifting colour for your home, mint green is a great choice. As with other greens, minty tones have a fresh and vibrant character. If you want to promote a sense of well-being and tranquillity, coating your walls with a mint green creamy emulsion paint is worth considering.  

Are your interiors leaving you feeling uninspired? Mint green can encourage creativity, making it the ideal shade for a home office or multi-functional living space. It’s a remarkably versatile colour. Its natural qualities make it a good choice for kitchens, while a minty green with icy undertones is an easy choice for a bathroom makeover. 

Furthermore, you’re not limited to a handful of accent colours when painting with mint green. Staples like white work well, but this colour family will also embrace metallics, natural woods and classic black. 

Ten Stunning Mint Paint Colours

Whatever painting project you have lined up, Johnstone’s is here to help. We stock a first-rate selection of mint green paints you can use to create the interiors of your dreams. 

The name of this paint colour gives you a good idea of what to expect. Fresh and pale, Mild Mint is just the ticket for a room that’s calling out for a new lease of life. With its laid-back profile and flat finish, this hazy aqua will make a welcome addition to any wall. 

This low-key mint will work in just about any room. However, it will work particularly well in bathrooms. If you’re thinking about using it in a small bedroom, think about adding some complexity by painting a surface or two in a slightly darker shade. To brighten things up, use a crisp white to paint mouldings, ceilings and internal doors. 

If you prefer a paler take on mint green, this standout shade from our range should appeal. Spearmint Stick might be light, but it won’t disappoint if your rooms are calling out for a shot of botanical character. A fine choice for contemporary homes, this apple-infused paint colour will also make a sympathetic addition to more traditional decors. 

As it’s so subdued, you won’t have any trouble coordinating this mint green with other colours. You can up the ante by bringing in icy jewel tones. Alternatively, use tarnished whites for a classic combination.

Searching for mint colours for a more modern interior? Make Chilled Mint the foundation of a first-rate colour scheme. Pure and pared-back, this stylish mint is a breath of fresh air. It’s low-key enough that you can use it on every surface. However, coordinating it with sage shades and light teals is also a good idea. 

Any room painted with this hue will feel bright and airy. It’s ideal for smaller spaces that won’t suit a more saturated shade. However, bigger layouts with high ceilings will also benefit from this uplifting and energising colour. 

If you like the idea of peacock green but find the usual colour options too vibrant, think about giving Ripple Of Mint a try. This subtle take on a colour classic brings an understated intensity to any room. Use it on its own to bring your room back to basics. Alternatively, coordinate it with an off-white or icy neutral for a stylish blank canvas. 

This minty shade works very nicely in bedrooms. However, it’s an obvious pick for bathrooms and kitchens. If you’re looking for complementary colours and want to avoid the usual greys and blues, think about using a muted lime or chartreuse green.

If you’re considering a nature-inspired palette, a clover green like Peppermint Patty is a good idea. Light and crisp, this uplifting hue will leave your spaces feeling pure and fresh. It’ll make a fine colour for a bathroom or spacious living area. Pair with simple accents like off-white and stripped-back furniture. 

You can bring in multiple shades of blue and green to add depth and subtle contrast. Alternatively, go for a more contemporary decor scheme and experiment with contemporary greys and earthy tones.

If you’d rather go with a minty shade that’s closer to green than blue, you’ll find plenty of suitable options in our range. Mellow Mint is a particularly stylish choice. This chartreuse green is a gorgeous alternative to classic pastels, with its muted tones making a welcome addition to laid-back living spaces and relaxing bedrooms. 

This minty pastel is also a good idea for kitchens and dining spaces. It works particularly well with wood tones, but even slate grey and classic white cabinets and furniture will pair nicely with this minty hue. 

If your home is more modern in character, you’ll probably want a minty shade that’s enriched with blue and grey undertones. With its grey undertones, Malted Mint fits the bill nicely. This muted turquoise might be on the lighter side, but it doesn’t disappoint when it comes to eye-pleasing pigment. 

Decorating with this one is a breeze. You can turn to blues, greys or greens to introduce additional hues into the mix. Failing that, a hint of classic white is just the ticket for mouldings and other room trims. 

If you’re ready for a more daring makeover, go with a minty hue that’s rich in green character. Mountain Mint is one of the finest choices from our extensive selection. This emerald green has a glowing quality, making it a great pick if you’re ready to say goodbye to run-of-the-mill neutrals or tepid cream shades. 

Versatile enough that it can be used throughout an entire room, this emerald-inspired hue also works well in moderation. Use it alongside off-whites or complementary greys to great effect. If you’re decorating an open-plan space, use this one to add eye-pleasing pops of colour. 

Ready for something more vibrant? How about Peppermint Fondant? This clover green is rich in pigment, with its crisp quality making a welcome addition to any room that’s been deprived of colour for far too long. 

Packed with natural character, this minty hue is ideal for turning an unloved bedroom into a stylish sleep sanctuary. However, you’re free to use it in any room of the home. Try using it alongside ivy shades for a biophilic study or use it in the kitchen to make those wood tones really sing.

Here’s another statement-making shade we’re sure you’ll appreciate. Electric Mint works well alongside tropical tones and more intense shades, with this seafoam green bringing bags of character to any room. 

You can use it alongside all manner of lively tones if you’re not afraid of exploring the colour wheel. For a more reserved decor scheme, stick to subtle chartreuse tones or contemporary greys instead.
