The brand describes it as a combination of summer warmth and country cool. If you want to embrace it in a charming farmhouse way, a la Joanna Gaines, pair this shade with rustic wood, whitewashed furnishings and cast iron details. For a modern take, look for metallic finishes, shag throw rugs (we recommend in white) and glass surfaces.

If you don't want to dive in head first with paint justyet, we recommend testing out this color in your decor with accessories and furnishings. This throw ($$, jossandmain.com) lets you dip your toe into the trend with a pop of color on your bed or sofa.

Or, pair it with a velvet pillow ($$, jossandmain.com) if you want to make Stardew the primary color in an otherwise white or neutral space.

Allison
Bust this checkered placemat ($$, jossandmain.com) out when guests are over and wait for the compliments to start rolling in.

Franklin
If you're willing to invest in this trend, a barrel chair ($$$, wayfair.com) would look beautiful in your bedroom corner (just don't cover it with clothes!) or in a reading nook.

To let this color take center stage in your home, pair it with Sherwin Williams' Storm Cloud SW 6249, Special Gray SW 6277 and Sea Salt SW 6204, which are all complimentary of Stardew, but won't upstage it. Watch this video for even more inspiration:

Look out for these tricky things that might be negatively impacting the quality of your shut-eye. 1. Your Technology That means smartphones, tablets, TVs, you name it. The artificial light that's emitted from these devices results in less melatonin production in the brain (the chemical that helps you fall asleep and regulates your sleep cycle), meaning you'll have a harder time dozing off. 2. Your Heavy (or Electric) Blankets Even though a warm and cozy setup might sound like something that would help you sleep better, higher body temperatures disrupt sleep — so you're better off sticking with a lightweight sheet or bedspread. 3. Your Wall Color If your bedroom walls are...
