Soft and romantic, this uplifting colour can be incorporated into any room. To help you on your way, we’ve rounded up the most beautiful ways to introduce this rosy shade into your home. Read on to find some inspiration to redecorate your home with a vibrant new look that’s full of life, colour and of course…. romance!
Sleep in Soft Pink in the Bedroom
As one of the cosiest rooms in the home, the bedroom is the perfect place to inject soothing and uplifting colours. From upholstered headboards (how amazing is this headboard from Button & Sprung?) and soft furnishings to painted walls, there are a few different ways to successfully incorporate pale blush tones into the bedroom. Go for a shade of pink that is warm and calming so that the room remains a calm and welcoming sanctuary. For a truly modern romantic scheme, introduce hints of warm copper, light gold and rose gold through lighting and other accessories.
Embrace Pink in Living Rooms
Allow vibrant furnishings to shine through by incorporating a vibrant pink sofa in to your living room. A statement sofa in a bright hue will be certain to wow any guests and immediately set a cosy scene. Team it with white washed chevron flooring, crittal windows and a neutral backdrop to tone down the pink and create an unapologetically romantic space.
Bathrooms in Blush
Introduce some contrast into your bathroom with a soft shade of pink. Whether it’s through accessories, furnishings or surfaces, this warming hue is sure to pop when combined with crisp white basins and ceramics. For an extra bit of interest, team your blush pieces with a beautiful terrazzo floor – the confetti pattern will bring a fun twist to any bathroom space.
Pink in the Kitchen
Yes, pink can be used in the kitchen too! It might seem like a colour that should be confined to ‘softer’ rooms like the bedroom or living room, but the kitchen has become a place where all sorts of colour can be incorporated in a number of different ways.
You don’t have to go all out, you can simply introduce decorative elements such as flowers or accessories or if you’re feeling brave, go bold and introduce a beautiful splashback that will add contrast and interest. Perfect pairings include brushed brass accents, marble surfaces and grey secondary colour palettes.
Dine in Pink
Romantic and uplifting, pink is perfect for dinner parties or sit down dates. From soft pastel linens to velvet dining chairs, there are a few ways to successfully bring a subtle hint of pink into the dining room. Complete your look by embracing pale blush tones through floral accents and gold finishes to keep your look effortlessly understated.
So there you have it – no matter where you choose to incorporate pink, whether you go all-out throughout the house or just add a subtle hint here and there, this elevating and plush tone is certain to set the mood in any space this Valentine’s Day… and for the rest of the year too!
