pink is such a big commitment when it comes to painting your walls. i posted this pale pink home last week — and there was no restraint there at all, and yet it worked so nicely. i thought i’d round up some commitment-phobe rooms with just a slice of pink — a solid accent wall, or a wainscoting, with pink part way up the wall. this friday — we’re in the pink. from deep coral pink to pale bubble gum — pick a shade, any shade.

Not only do I love every pink that is used in every picture, but I love HOW they painted. The creativity is so simple yet makes such a statement!
Love it – pink could be such a beautiful main color for the home!
i would never have thought to pair pink walls with a vintage kilim, but somehow i quite like it in that first image.
Usually I gravitate more toward cool colors on walls, but these pinks feel totally airy. The styling in these spaces is also so fabulous; it really show the versatility of pink!
I just went pink, too. Like guava pink. I just ended a 7-year relationship with a minimalist designer who loved blacks, whites, & greys and moved into my own little apartment and needed THE COLOR. Living in this trend of minimalism, I had tried to put myself in that bucket but always veered toward the fun & colorful. So I’m just gonna do me.
Still adding details (have a great copper snake mirror to hang, updating the hanging planters, adding leaf green linen pillow, etc) but the initial result makes me so happy.

Considering the rest of the apt is landlord-approved warm white, having one pop color wall was necessary to make it feel like home. And it’ll be easy enough to repaint when I move on.
That one where it looks like they just stopped painting halfway through is very interesting! I used to have a pepto bismal pink bedroom in high school and I absolutely loved it. I would totally go pink again!
I painted my dining room a pale pink, the color of the inside of a seashell, years before pink became the new neutral. It is the perfect place for pink b/c with candlelight, everyone at the table glows. Just what you want at your dinner party! And I can see it from the living room and from the kitchen and it just looks so pretty and calm.
I have such a love/hate relationship with pink. These are dangerous to see right before I paint my office!

I do like the way in which pink is used in these rooms. I used to have a pink carpet as a child…I think I would have preferred the walls!

These pinks are lovely!
Love this so so much it’s exactly my taste.
I love the picture of the man with the pink colors around him with the Asian writing at the bottom in the pinecomb camp picture. Where did it come from?
I am about to paint my home office pink. Can you tell me the name of the paint color used in the 7th photo from the bottom? thanks!
i’m sorry, sarah – the post doesn’t say, but maybe you could check in with her:
