Lapiz Lazuli
To give your backyard a touch of royalty, consider using the Lapis Lazuli color palette! The deep blue gemstone inspires this luxurious and soothing scheme.
You can pair the rich and deep ultramarine or indigo shades with brass accents or incorporate lapis lazuli stones actively by creating a stamped pathway border, adding decorative accents in a rock garden, or even as part of a water feature.
Emerald Escape
