Decorating With Pink
A bathroom decorated in pink used to conjure up images of fuzzy pink toilet seat covers, solid pink shower curtains, and pink porcelain tile. Many older bathrooms followed this monochrome theme up with pink sink tiles and a pink porcelain sink.
These days however, pink can be a scathing accent to a contemporary bathroom look. It can also be the softening touch to a tropical or ocean themed bathroom decor. Of course, a little girl’s bathroom can be done with pink as well, without looking like a bowl of strawberry ice cream.
The key to using pink in a bathroom is to infuse the color into the design without letting it overwhelm. If the bath has pink shower curtains, consider offsetting the bright panels with dark brown paint, or chocolate brown rugs and towels. Replacing the all pink curtain with a pink and brown shower curtain will add a contrast that is more visually appealing.
Another unique way of incorporating pink into your bathroom is with a tropical theme. Use a wallpaper border displaying coral reefs, seashells, or seahorses. Blending the soft pastel shades of peach, pink, sky blue, and beige together allows pink to become the accent color that brings the room together.
Retro-modern designs often feature hot pink with black and white to bring a sharp, edgy look to a room. For instance, hot pink shower curtains would make a great counterbalance to black and white tiles on the floor.
For the best way to design your bath around a pink shower curtain, accessories and decor need to be chosen accordingly. Avoid the monochrome pink theme by bringing in black and white photos. Use a simple white tile and continue the pink theme with wall decor accents that can be moved or replaced for a quick change; find the balance and find the beauty.
