It is easy to stay in your comfort zone when it comes to home decoration. After all, mistakes are expensive, especially when it comes to something like window curtains that contain a lot of fabric. However, it is a pity if we all end up with the same bland, neutral rooms as a result of our fear.
Of course, pink is not right for every room. Just ask your teenage son! But if you love pink and other family members have no objections, go for it and do not be afraid. The important thing is to use pink in the right way and to take into account the type and style of room.
If you are decorating a nursery for a baby girl, then you probably would not even stop to think about pink curtains as any kind of risk. You can choose the frothiest pink curtains you like. Similarly for a young girls room, you can use pink in any way you like and you cannot go far wrong. However, in the living room, you need to take a bit more care over your choice.
In the case of a living room, it is best to keep your curtains as sophisticated as possible. Choose a grown up shade rather than pale pink for best results. Hot pink curtains in a solid color and textured fabric such as faux suede would look great in a contemporary room especially if you keep headings simple. Tab tops with their lack of frills and gathering are ideal.
If your living room is more traditional in nature, introduce pink in floral patterned curtains. If you prefer hot pink to calmer shades, use this in small amounts in the pattern, or enjoy more pink with paler shades. In any case, this idea works best if the background of the curtains is white, cream or ivory and there are other colors in the fabric such as the sage green of the leaves. A light pink can also work really well for kitchen curtains.
