Too often, decorating a pink room is limited to girls' bedrooms. This, we think, is a waste of a wonderful color that needn't be solely thought of as feminine. In fact, used well, pink can be elegant, sultry, as an accent, as an enveloping shade, and even in a living room.

If you are considering pink room ideas, it is worth seeking expert advice first, precisely because it isn't the easiest color to get right if you are aiming for sophistication despite being named the most beautiful color for a room. Luckily, interior architect and designer – and a big fan of pink – Natalia Miyar shares her tips for putting a sophisticated spin on decorating with pink. 

Here, she reveals how to wow with when decorating a pink room.

Decorating a pink room

'Pink is one of my preferred colors to use for a scheme,' says Natalia. 'For my own London apartment, I chose a pink palette, partly because it presents something of a challenge, which I like,' she says. 

'In the wrong hands, it can look twee, and I was keen to show a version that represents the glamor we create for our clients, something which is deeply personal and perhaps a bit more adventurous.'

1. Layer different tones of pink for interest and character

Layering different tones of pink can create a rich scheme that's characterful and intriguing – and Natalia says that bold shades of pink can add drama to dining room ideas. 

'Think about mixing and matching different shades of pink, too; baby pink dining room chairs with more vibrant lampshades, say, or a cerise bed frame with peach linens,' she advises.

2. Use pink as a neutral

For Natalia, the palest lick of pink works well as an alternative base for a room. 'I love using pink as a neutral; it's much more interesting than beige or taupe. I designed the living room in my home solely around this shade. There is something very comforting about it and the warm tones feel especially cozy on a chilly day.'

To create a cohesive look with pink living room ideas, choose similar hues for furniture and textiles. The silk velvet sofa is Natalia's own design and the shaggy silk rug by Sinclair Till is in subtle shades of pink and cream. 

Natalia recommends starting small and adding layers of interest through accessories or artwork. The latter was used in her living room as a starting point for the entire scheme. 

'The color composition of the artwork over the sofa by Cuban artist Gustavo Acosta directly influenced the palette I chose. The pink Havana skyline creates a beautiful accent and brings everything together.'

Deep layers of pink from the artwork to the furniture add warmth to this living room.

3. Combine pink with punchy patterns

One of Natalia's go-to tricks for ensuring that decorating a pink room feels contemporary and fresh is by contrasting it with other colors in unexpected ways. For instance, in a recent project, she paired pink and navy on a vibrant patterned headboard.

'I love to use clashing graphic prints that are anchored in a subtle theme. Here, the bed is the anchor of the room and you can have fun with pattern as it is a relatively small expense.'

For a softer approach to print, consider modern blooms on textiles, such as cushions or curtains instead. 

4. Use deep, earthy pink for a cocooning feel

As somewhere that people pass through rather than linger, the hallway lends itself to bold colors that make a real impact. For her own hallway, Natalia chose a shade of raspberry red to introduce the pink theme in an elegant manner.

'It is not a color I have used before and I tested six shades before deciding on this one,' she recalls. 'I wanted to feel like I was stepping into a different space that was unique and distinctly home. Guests always remark on the color and I hope I have inspired a few of them to try something new. '

5. Decorate with pink accents

To anyone wary of decorating with pink as a hero color, Natalia recommends starting small and adding layers of interest through accessories or artwork. Here, the details are more evident when contrasted with the charcoal walls.

Which shade of pink should I choose for my room?

The shade of pink you choose for your room depends on a number of factors: the orientation and nature of the daylight the room receives – warm or cool; the time of day you use the room – and whether in daylight or under artificial light; the effect you want to create – light and airy or warm and cocooning; and the use of the room. Warm, deep pinks will make a room feel cozier and welcoming, but darker and smaller; lighter shades will enhance space but make the room feel cooler. 

Before you choose the shade of pink for your room, it's vital to test out different tones, on all four walls, at all times of day and the evening. That way, you can pick the perfect color. Remember that as paint dries, it generally darkens, so leave your judgement until you have a couple of tester coats on, fully dry.

Interior designers have started using pink more and more recently, with deep earthy shades with a hint of raspberry or orange matched with earthy shades being on-trend pinks to decorate with. These deep, earthy pinks are generally being matched with neutrals and naturals – honey beige and warm browns, creamy whites and even black.

Interior designers are also using pink within natural materials, such as veined marble, in table- and countertops in kitchens and bathrooms, living rooms and bedrooms.

What colors go with pink?

Most colors go with pink but if you want to create a sophisticated look, stick to decorating with pink and natural shades, especially earthier tones, such as warm brown and cinnamon. Other colors that go with pink and look elegant include black, dark blue, deep green and orange.

Think about the tone of the pink too – and match that tone to those of your other colors, rather than, say, combining an earthy pink with a cool pastel blue, for example.

As a trained architect Natalia Miyar approaches design with a skilful understanding of balance and proportion, creating spaces which are both considered and lively with a finely tuned eye for materiality. Her eponymous London atelier is a conduit for creative collaboration characterized by a confident and artful use of color, pattern and texture. With bases in London and Miami the fast-growing transatlantic team spearheaded by Natalia create effortlessly luxurious homes that are sought by a global stable of private clients favouring a client-faced approach.

Pink has become a highly desirable accent colour, not just in sugary sweet little girls’ rooms but in sophisticated master bedrooms alike (and just about every other room of the home too!) Pink decor is a hot topic right now and so we’ve put together a gorgeous collection of 101 of our favourite pink bedrooms and blush bedroom accessories, plus tips to help you imagine your very own. Hitting every part of the pink colour spectrum, we explore rosy accent walls, hot pink headboard feature walls, solid pink bed bases, stylish pink bedroom benches, chairs, lamps and rugs, and peaceful pink bed sets.

Make pink the headline – or the headboard. If you don’t want a whole room full of blush pink then how about just a headboard feature wall? Keep other colours in the room within the same muted colour palette so that the scheme melds peacefully together, like this soft green accent rug, grey bed covers and curtains.

You can also add a little texture to your pink headboard feature wall by adding slats. Accentuate the finished look with some stylish bedroom pendant lights too. These gold ones are the IC Lights S Style Pendant. The original is available here.

Go all in. If you’re an all or nothing kind of personality, then an all pink bedroom scheme should hit the mark. Go for a shade of pink paint that is warm and soothing so that the bedroom remains a calm and welcoming place. Choose all white furniture (like the white bed frame and the white side table here) to cut crisp and clean silhouettes.

Change your tone. Brighten dusky shades with bright coral elements to bring things bang up to date.

Chic and shiny. A grey and pink bedroom scheme makes a chic combination but can fall a little flat on its own. Metallic accents like these twin pendant lights and small side tables add in a little sparkle. Whether you go for warm copper, light gold accents, or complement the pink tones of your room with rose gold lamps and accessories, it will be a harmonious pairing.

Make your bed into a peaceful pink island, in the middle of a calm white sea.

Plush pink bed sets look fresher when layered with white sheets and pure white pillows.

Add a blast of contrast. If you’re looking for a second strong colour to contrast and complement pink decor, then teal is a terrific option. Coming from the opposite side of the colour wheel, this blue-green hue makes a bold partner for pink. You can combine the two easily by layering up bedclothes, or go duotone on wardrobe finishes. There are contrasting bedroom benches in this particular example too, but this time grey has been chosen to create a quieter balance…

A similar balance can be achieved with a teal, pink and brown bedroom palette.

Meld colours with a piece of wall art. In this pink and blue bedroom design, peacock blue accentuates a pink textured headboard feature wall. Rose gold orbs drop down by a piece of wall art that brings the two hues together. A rose gold bedside table lamp echoes the metallic tone on the opposite side of the blue bed.

Frame it, frame it, frame it. The cushioned headboard in this pink and grey bedroom has been set within three more frames, resulting in a grander headboard that also reaches behind the bedside units.

There’s boiserie, and then there’s pink boiserie. This traditional wall treatment looks tooth-achingly delicious in sweet pink. Pink drapes, bed, pink bedroom bench and a pink area rug continue the delicate tone.

Pink painted traditional features fill the ceiling in this bedroom, where a modern pink light shade dangles from a classic ceiling rose. Decorative coving creates a beautiful border. Headboard side wall feature matches the texture of the tufted bed.

Weight down a light decor scheme with darker elements. Black bedside lights bring dark base notes to this pale pink modern bedroom. An asymmetrical design is created by hanging a pendant light at one side, and mounting a modern wall sconce at the other.

Shape up. This pink and purple bedroom scheme uses graphic shapes for an uber contemporary feel.

Grow a natural theme by adding green and wood accents. A pink and green bedroom with wooden elements evokes a sense of nature that will aid with relaxation.

Meet the colour scheme halfway. It’s no new thing to paint walls in two different colours on their upper and lower half, but a loose paint technique that this one adds modern and carefree character.

Wrap the room with pink wainscot for a smart classic take on the candy colour.

Look to luxe to add romance. The lustrous wall art, pendant light shade and furniture trims in this pink and gold bedroom add a dash of luxury. Get that gorgeous golden light here.

Be selective. By picking out just a few of your favourite pink pieces you can put together a pink bedroom scheme that isn’t overbearing. In this example, a piece of modern artwork is the muse for the room, and has been given a pink backdrop that brings out its colours. Plush pink window drapes, pink pendant lights and a pink beanbag join the exhibit.

Not all pink bedrooms are sweetness and light. Dusky pink and dark grey bedrooms have have touch of shadowy drama. Add a backlit glass closet to proceedings and you’ve really got yourself a show.

These dusky pink closets have a textured finish to make them stand out from the rest of the pink crowd. A small circle chandelier adds in some warmth to the space.

Tie it together with taupe. Pink and black bedroom accents rest well against a taupe backdrop, as the warm yet neutral colour works as a colour bridge between the two.

Lovers of the eclectic vibe will be tickled pink with this one. Yellow ochre, cobalt blue, brown elements and pale pink come together with tiny streaks of gold in a magical boho melting pot.

Give your pink bedroom some jewellery. Add a bit of ‘bling’ with sparkly pendants, shiny wallpaper prints and multiple decorative wall mirrors.

Use colour to define areas of use. A pink slatted wall panel covers the area behind a vanity table in this bedroom, clearly separating the makeup table from the bed.

The padded pink wall section in this room marks the sleep and relaxation zone – with a dressing table and closets left out in the grey zone. A statement bedroom chandelier is the hero of the ceiling.

Put it in lights. There’s nothing subtle about a neon sign, a giant terrarium or a bold pink wallpaper, but who said a bedroom had to be subtle?

Break it to make it. These green, black and white elements nicely break up this pink decor scheme, and balance each other out perfectly.

Pink doesn’t have to be the main event. Just because you want to feature pink in your bedroom, that doesn’t mean you have to make it the most dominant thing. The focal point of this bed is a showstopping white mandala headboard; the pink throw, accent cushions and pink bedroom chair provide a solid supporting act.

Just a few pink bedroom accessories colour this predominantly white bedroom.

Curate small clusters of pink. You might colour just the closets and a vanity table, or just the bed and a reading corner like in this cozy bedroom. Keep the majority of the room white so that pink furniture, a rug or floor lamp will really stand out.

Dress the room from head to toe. A bedroom that is completely enveloped in one colour, from ceiling to floor, will gain much needed colour relief in the form of a contrasting accent chair and bright home accessories. This example brings in warm sunshine yellow accents as a cheerful touch.

Redesign your door. White walls, white trims and white floors fill this Scandinavian bedroom. In order not to disturb the peace, only the door has been painted with a hint of pink to match a pink bed set.

Double the room colour with a huge mirror.

Paint with pastels. Pastel pink and powder blue will always be beautiful together. Apply in even amounts for a baby soft colour scheme.

Is there anything more traditionally girly than a pink bedroom with a four poster bed? This room also features a modern desk space with a pink kid’s chair so she can work at making her own dreams come true.

Another traditional pink kids’ room, this time with a canopy bed.

Fluff out with frills and extra fabric. Ruched nets dress the dual aspect windows here; pink drapes have been hung to the side of the glass to make the window look bigger. The walls beside the bed and desk have been softened with pink upholstered panels.

Fashion your own pink pieces. This luxury kids’ room has all of its storage furniture made-to-measure. A designer table lamp and a set of pink shelves fit inside a desk nook, below bespoke wall units with a matching pink door.

Sleep beneath a pink sky, like this dreamy pink cloud ceiling mural. A pink area rug reflects the hue back down on ground level.

A more child-like vision of the pink cloud theme.

Blow hot and cold, with hot fuschia and iced pink wall sections.

Take inspiration from the tropics. A white swing arm wall lamp stretches across tropical bird prints on this hot pink headboard feature wall.

Another take on a hot pink accent wall with animal art prints.

Pink and personalised. Kids love to see their names printed on just about anything, from pencils and pencil cases to mugs and tshirts. Why not personalise their room too with some painted wood wall letters.

Change up prints and patterns.

Soft pink meets soft lighting in this pink black and white kid’s room, which is trimmed with a half height border of LED perimeter lighting.

This softly lit floral feature forms a joint headboard for twin beds. See more ideas for shared kids’ rooms here.

LED strip lights trim a ceiling mural and a modern chandelier here. A recessed pink wall shelf glows warmly above the two matching pink kids’ beds.

Take it over the top. Create a stripe of unapologetic fuschia pink across your floor, up your walls, and over your ceiling. Hang a colour coordinated chandelier for extra full-on effect.

Drape a white space with flowing pink accessories, like silky window drapes, soft bed set and a matching throw. Use elegant black accents to sharpen up the scene, such as monochrome artwork and some slimline swing arm wall lamps.

Lighten up a lofted bed or playspace. Light pink makes a light and delicate lining for a boxed-in bunk or play nook. Colour match the stairs or ladders that climb up to it to accentuate the effect.

Offset smooth pink planes with textured feature walls to conquer an awkward room shape.

Widen the effect of a pink headboard without overdoing it on colour. Add white patterned/textured panels onto each side of the pink headboard design, and frame all three pieces to keep them visually connected.

Make a misty dreamy bedroom wall by rolling out a pink paint effect. In this room, a pink portiere draws across a home office area to keep work and rest zones softly sectioned. The home workspace is also decked out in deep teal green to exaggerate the boundary.

The curvaceous nature of globe pendant lights mingles gracefully with an intimate pink bedroom setting. Choose a clustered low hanging pendant design to fashion chic glamour.

Nature themed bedrooms don’t have to be all about neutrals, mossy greens and shades of brown. Explore the possibility of a nature themed mural that’s been tinted with pink to evoke hazy memories of summer sunsets. Dress the room with a vase of gorgeous pink blooms to bring in a real piece of the outdoors.

Animal themed murals work too! This peacock decor is intermingled with imagery of pink roses, and surrounded by a frame of rose pink paint.

Another beautifully executed nature themed decor scheme, this time achieved with a botanical print wallpaper that has blush pink accents amongst the foliage. A rising headboard silhouette sits like a pink crown bestowed upon the bed.

Cut out a catwalk. Paint a rectangle of pink behind your floor length mirror, then tell us you don’t strut toward it like you’re doing runway at fashion week.

A bit of pink, a lot of raw concrete and one hot modern chandelier–what more could one ask for? Oh, ok then, how about some fabulous ambient lighting to set off the pink panel work and a huge shiny glass closet? Bellissimo!

Bring a little buzz into a fully pink colour scheme by adding a pair of plush sapphire blue drapes at the windows.

Chip away at any unwanted sweetness by choosing big and bold, black and white additions. A heavily graphic black and white rug will help weigh down a light scheme, monochrome art dresses walls without overflowing a colour palette. Finish with a black modern pendant light to keep the look tight.

Turn up the sunshine. If a bright fuschia wall isn’t enough to make you don sunglasses, throw in some orange, red and turquoise scatter cushions and a multicoloured bedroom rug to turn the vibe totally tropical.

Mellow pink and minty. Even out pastel pink elements with the same amount of minty coloured pieces for a cool and collected result. Use the two different colours to bring out areas of interest like display shelves and storage cupboards, or to give two bunk beds each an individual presence.

Dial it down with charcoal grey and black. Don’t stress too much about finding that oh-so-perfect muted shade of pink, pastel pink shades can be dialled back by layering darker elements into the scheme, like a dark grey bed set and curtains, and black and white photographic prints.

It’s great to pixelate. Create a bespoke pixelated pink headboard design by using blocks of different shaded paint or fabric. Add in one or two extra colours to raise the energy.

Give each piece its wow factor. This geometric panel accent wall makes up for in pattern what is lacks in boldness of shade; on the other hand, a couple of basic pillows up the ante in hot pink covers.

Get picky about bedroom chairs. A basic bedroom chair in itself can be enough to add a pop of colour to a bedroom design, but the right piece could push your design to the next level. This chic modern pink chair has a sweeping backrest that vibes stunningly with a winged bed design, and its upholstery is the perfect shade to establish a third sugary perspective in the pink and wood grain room design.

Pretty up a blue room with pristine pink cushions and curtains.

Push up the pink factor in your master suite, with a glass wall pink ensuite bathroom. A pink chaise lounge, attached to the bedside, extends the pink factor all the way across to the opposite window in here too.

Compliment the gentle shade of your new pink room with a floaty pendant light shade. Look for loose ruffles and gentle feathery designs.

Sometimes it’s about what’s NOT pink in the room. When planning out a pink bedroom, it’s just as important to figure out the things that won’t follow suit, like this charcoal grey panelled headboard wall.

Confine pink to the furniture only. A pink headboard and matching pink closets can have more than enough impact on a bedroom colour scheme, particularly if they are built in the same textured/ribbed material to create that solid visual link.

If you have a floor bed, then keep your coloured section close to the ground with you.

Rose gold accents and copper accessories tone seamlessly with rosy backgrounds. The metallic pieces will blend subtly yet still add shine to the overall finish of the room.

Rustic, industrial or sleek modern interior styles, pink works fabulously alongside them all. Bring on the raw timber, exposed brickwork or concrete, and pink pieces will add warmth and softness.

Polished wood grain and pink also make a stunning duo together, particularly when combined with a nature/floral theme.

Amplify the prettiness of swags, swirls and all kinds of glamour with pale pink and light gold trims.

More swirls and swags.

Go flamingo… pink. Flamingo’s make cute motifs for pink kids’ rooms; this particular little bird friend has inspired a pink house shaped headboard nook too.

Another pink house shaped headboard nook idea, this time with the bed tucked in lengthways. Clouds, stars and a hot air balloon complete the whimsical scene.

Don’t stop at a beautiful pink headboard idea, layer up the look with captivating bedroom pendant lights.

Pink with polka dots! Whether your polka dots are pink in themselves, or you scatter rainbow polka dots alongside a solid pink background, this is an absolute winner for a fun kid’s room design–or for anyone still fun filled and young at heart!

Springtime vibes. Fresh pink and white candy stripe wallpaper, light wood tone furniture and rose pink accessories will put a spring in your step.

Pink isn’t just for the ladies, guys. Pink was never considered a ‘girl thing’ until some baby clothing retailers suggested it should be so in the early twentieth century. Thankfully pink is now being restored to its former gender neutral status and is regularly seen in men’s fashion and interiors.

Paint bookcases in the corresponding paint colour to your wall for a peaceful pink layout.

Pale mauve gives the lightest hint of a tint.

Another stunning mauve bedroom idea, this time featuring mauve padded wall panels.

Stage different areas in a room by colour blocking walls and doors, and sectioning up ceiling space–like the pink entryway and teal sleep ‘box’ in this shared kids’ room.

Blend outward. Starting with a solid pink tufted headboard here, we move out into a territory of mixed colour and pale bedsides, before landing in plain white paintwork. The gentle transition is restul and easy on the eye.

Pad out that pink headboard. When you’re onto a good thing, keep it running–right across the room.

Ruches and ribbing. Simulate a ruched curtain by ribbing your pink headboard upholstery. Note how the slender stem of the tall floor lamp gets conveniently lost in the folds.

Sing pink all the way up to the rafters.

Carve out some crazy cool contrast with baby pink and bottle green.

Energise a laid-back light pink room with a sudden splash of hot pink.

Accessorise silver grey and blush bedrooms with metallic silver and copper elements.

Pink panels offset with arches.

Old faithfuls and new delights. An old distressed bedstead looks right at home alongside super fresh bright coral paintwork. Crisp white bedclothes and white wall trims bring the two together.

In the living room

When decorating the living room, we recommend that you take a closer look at these popular and successful options:

Pink and white living room

This classic combination will make the most important room of the house incredibly light and bright. Even the smallest room, made in a tandem of pink and white, will seem spacious and voluminous. A snow-white-pink combination is often used for a minimalist style.

Please note that such an interior may soon get pretty boring. To prevent this from happening, forget about the bright pink color and use only pastel colors, complementing with a soft raspberry, cream or creamy shade.
The living room will become airy and romantic, it will be a real salvation for women who are prone to depression and occupy a stressful position. To please men, you can dilute the marshmallow living room with black, chocolate or blue accents.

Pink and beige living room

Beige will help create a peaceful atmosphere in a room designed for family gatherings and receiving guests. It successfully combines with the “doll” base, muffling its excessive glamour. Thus, interior paints will create a peaceful atmosphere.

Bright colors are unacceptable for this design - preference is given to muted tones, as if faded in the sun. These include powdery, light salmon, tea rose color. To emphasize the described pastel colors of the walls, use beige, chocolate, or white furniture. It is best to leave the ceiling white, add as many wooden products as possible to the interior. Golden, bronze and caramel accessories emphasize the overall style of the living room. If you choose blue or turquoise curtains, the living room will take on a complete look. This combination will be appropriate in a classic and Provencal interior, as well as in baroque and country style.

Pink and gray living room

Do you want to recreate modern, vintage or retro style? The perfect color choice would be a combination of gray and pink. This combination allows you to make the room more masculine or more feminine. It is worth adding more gray tint - and the room will become more elegant and restrained.

Gray goes well with any marshmallow shade. You choose whether you want to create a living room in warm or cold colors.

Contrast living room

Add spring freshness and the feeling of a blooming garden with a green and pink combination. Peach, raspberry, dark emerald and turquoise also work well with our main shade. You can adjust the brightness to your liking - young people will most likely choose a deep pinkish tone combined with bright green colors, while respectable people will prefer smoky pink and soft green tone.

It is not necessary to combine these combinations only on the decoration of the room. It can be decorated in white or beige, while furniture and accessories will stand out.

Adjustable contrast

Bright living room

Pink is widely used to recreate ethnic motifs. If you want an Arabic, Mexican, Indian or Moroccan style living room with a passionate southern touch, use colorful ornaments.
For example, raspberry or rich purple can be combined with completely incompatible, at first glance, tones. They can be emerald, turquoise, orange colors.

If you want to create a bright Art Nouveau room, furniture or accessories in acid pink shades will come in handy. Remember the importance of the size of the room - the smaller it is, the smaller the ornament should be. Bright pink is so eye-catching that even in a neutral beige or white room, two or three accents will create the impression of a completely pink room.

Don't forget the dimensions of the room

In the bathroom

Taking the risk of painting your bathroom in pink will make it not only bright, but also very modern, exclusive and stylish. If you are not one of the very romantic natures who fall into delight with one marshmallow shade, use cold tones. They do not create a feeling of cloying and puppetry, while filling the room with pleasant coolness, tenderness and a feeling of cleanliness.

Bold design

The first pink bathrooms appeared in the thirties in the USA. However, they only came into fashion in the fifties thanks to the wife of then President Eisenhower. The example of her doll bathroom was followed by many housewives who wanted to decorate their rooms in the same style. Over time, they were replaced by blue and green bathrooms, but in our time, demand has skyrocketed again.

Advice

Place moisture-loving flowers in your "girly" bathroom - juicy rich greenery will enliven the design of the room.

Enrich your bathroom with fresh flowers

When decorating your bathroom, don't forget about accessories. Observe color proportions so as not to overdo it with one of the base colors. If you want to install bright pink bathroom fixtures, the walls of the bathroom should be decorated in a neutral way - in white, beige or cream.

White furniture enhances the sophistication of the interior

If you have enough space in the room and decorate it in a glamorous style, it would be appropriate to put a snow-white floor vase. A mirror with a soft strawberry edging will enliven the bathroom. The accent can be shifted to an ornate chandelier - the main thing is to choose the right size. Well, the final touch will be the patterned rugs located at the bath and toilet.

Have you heard of the shabby chic style? It is applicable to the bathroom and provides for the predominance of pink delight with white accents. It is best to choose tiles in cool pinkish tones, leave the ceiling white or paint it in pale pink.

A thick shower curtain with stripes or a white-pink pattern completes the overall range.

Often used in shabby chic style

For a chest of drawers or a table for bathroom accessories, choose a wooden item painted in our barbie color. You can give it a slight effect of antiquity with a special tool that will crack the paint.

Paint the top of the bedside table white so that interesting purple cracks will show through the snow-white top.

Black looks nice too, but don't go overboard.

If you're going to use a white wall-hung sink, decorate it with an apron made from the same fabric you used for the curtain. The mirror in this decor should stand out. Choose a carved wood frame, paint it with white paint or decorate it with gilding.

If you find a crystal chandelier with pink pendants, that's great.

The existing window in the bathroom can be decorated with wooden blinds or matching paneled curtains. It is appropriate to place scented candles and hygiene kits in a pink bath.

In the hallway

One of the popular stereotypes is that pink decoration is appropriate only for a little girl's room. The palette of this color is so diverse that it can be used everywhere, even in the hallway.

Tip

If you decide to use it as a base, go for soothing pastels. This is especially appropriate in a small corridor without natural light. Choose from peach, smoky and steel shades.

This color can be used even in the hallway

Pink does not like bright chandeliers, so disperse the lighting around the entire perimeter using LEDs and spotlights.

Soft and diffused light will make the hallway very cozy. Based on the specifics of the room, you can paint the walls in two shades - the lower part is gray so that the walls do not rub off, and the upper and pale pink. Or wallpaper with an unobtrusive pattern with a pink accent.

If wall decoration in this color seems too extravagant for you, leave it classic - white, beige, gray, light brown. Purple accessories and textiles will be an interesting solution. For example, against the background of snow-white walls, a salmon closet will effectively stand out.

Use bright accessories

Do you have a window in the hallway? Light pink curtains made of light fabric, freely letting in the sun's rays, will dilute the monotonous room, and a pair of sconces with the same lampshade will complete the picture.

By the way, the pink lampshade will perfectly fit into the pink hallway. The light transmitted by them will be as if smoky.

A vase with natural flowers or a decorative floor vase will be the finishing touch.
