Powerfully Pink
Pink isn’t only for little girls anymore. In the past few years we’ve seen pink cover everything from a male fashion statement to the campaign for breast cancer. Why let everyone else have all the color?
Pink is fabulous because it can be effortlessly delicate yet it works as an unexpected punch in home décor. Don’t be afraid to play around with this pretty pigment! Take a look at some of the fantastic ways that pink has been incorporated in these homes and be inspired to use this evolving color within your own designs.
So glamorous! This beautiful rose quartz is called Rosado and is available through CaesarStone.
I love the various patterns in this room. That they don’t all match does not matter as the tones and designs complement one another.

If you’re feeling bashful about painting your whole room pink, just try one accent wall. Note that in this picture the white crown molding, trim, and lower wall ensure that you’re not overwhelmed with color. House Beautiful March 2010.
Soft pink towels work well as a contrast against the metals and marble in the room.

So you’re loving the pink, but don’t know if you want to take a complete plunge?
