Decorating With Pink

Posted by Kim on November 15, 2011

Do you have the perfect room for a little pink? I’m not talking about a room for little girls, but a big girl room. The spot that’s perfect for reading a book or having tea. Yes, that’s it, a room for having tea served to you on a big silver platter. Pink is more than ballerina shoes, it can be chic and sophisticated.

What do you think about this room? It has stunning curtains and shades of pink all over. I would never think to decorate a room like this, but I love it! Maybe having a pink room keeps the boys out. I’m the only girl in my house so this is looking pretty inviting to me…ha!

Pink and grey…what a great combination!

This workspace is a winner! The pink is beautiful against the bright white and it could be changed quickly if you decide try another color. You would only need to change a few things, not paint the room. Smart & beautiful!

Have you ever decorated with pink?

A beautiful workspace can help you be more productive, don’t you think? I do. Give me this amazing painted desk and I’ll surely sit there longer checking things off my list. It would bring out the best in me!

Whatever your workspace looks like it should be a wonderful addition to your home, not some big ugly desk you found on the side of the road. Well, if you did find it on the side of the road you best give it a cheerful paint job…ha!

Sometime a desk needs to fit in the corner of a room and look great with the rest of your decor. This is an awesome desk for a small space and who wouldn’t want that fabulous chair?? I’ll take it!

Mix color and a love for Ikea and you get this creative workspace that sure to keep you inspired all day long!

This desk is simple, feminine and down right gorgeous! The whole room is washed with light and I would trade in a heartbeat!

What’s your dream workspace look like? Would one of these work for you?

What a great little bit of ingenuity!

Narrow enough to work in even the smallest room, this cool little shelf includes a storage area to boot. This can be easily built using 1×12 solid wood glued and nailed together to form a long box shape. Then cover the back with a strip of thin plywood which will keep the box strong and the angles square. It also gives you a solid material to use in attaching the whole thing to the wall.

Important! – The amount of weight a shelf like this can hold is determined by a few factors. Be sure to make design choices based on your strength requirements.
