It seems pretty easy if you are adept with GIMP and use its channel mixer to change up the icon colours. You should be able to mix down into a pleasing shade of pale olive-lime green.

Figured I would forward this cool trick; make symbolic links of everything within Caja, in a new directory except for the theme configuration file so you can have the same exact theme using the same files from their original paths under a different name. Then as you replace links with actual files, you will see it change over time while using the base theme, so you can re-use assets without wasting space on duplicate files.

As Caja doesn’t produce links with the same name, rather renaming them Link to x, you can install gprename to batch-rename and remove the preceding text.
