Decorating with Pink at Home

Happy Valentine’s Day! Well, I don’t actually go in much for the holiday. I will however jump on the chance to feature some of my favorite things in my favorite color. Hello, pretty pink.

1. Selemat Deco Nesting Boxes, Candelabra
   Great shape but also more substantial in size than a lot of little decorative lidded boxes.
2. Elroy Left and Right Arm Chairs, Mitchell Gold + Bob Williams
   These are brand new and I am crushing hard! There’s a larger image below, styled with the Santorini coffee table that’s also new and excellent.
3. Pink Quartz Lirit Side Table, Anthropologie
   This will only get prettier as the brass base darkens with patina. (Shown below with these rose velvet chairs.)
4. Major Large Matte Pink Mug, CB2
   Generous in size and therefore the perfect hot cocoa mug.
5. Signe Tall Planter, Urban Outfitters
   The color-blocking and fluted column are special details.
6. Rose Quartz Obelisk Points, Etsy (Earth Shine)
   Perhaps you don’t need an entire table, but still want some pink gems in your life to the tune of $15.
7. Sutter Linen Quilt and Quilted Shams, Serena & Lily
   A soft and beautiful addition to the bedroom. I’ve been mixing pale pink with ochre in our bedroom to temper the sweetness a bit. (Update coming soon!)
8. Tasseled Nadia Pillow, Anthropologie
   This is a petite pillow, so pay attention to sizing (18″). Would be great on a small accent chair or layered in front of a larger solid pillow.
9. Strut Coffee Table (Sweetness), Blu Dot
   The Strut series has long been a favorite, and the expanded range of colors just makes it that much easier to find one to work in various spaces.
10. Fleur Tufted Wool Rug, Annie Selke
    Reads as a floral, but not. I want to design a million rooms around this rug.
11. Pink Simple Scallop Wall Shelf, Land of Nod
    Charming for a kid’s room!
12. Murphy Sofa, Room & Board
    I took a then tiny Eleanor with me to check this sofa out years ago, and I still love it. Even more so now that it comes stocked in pink.
13. Murphy Ottoman, Room & Board
    The matching ottoman looks good with the sofa, but it’s also a good way to add some flexible seating to a room and a way to bring in this cute color and design without a whole new sofa.
14. Bathtub (Pink) by Emily Proud, Artfully Walls
    So drawn to this composition.
15. Pink Soap Pump and Canister, CB2
    Grab these for a cute bathroom update.

• Pink Quartz Lirit Side Table, Anthropologie

• Elroy Left and Right Arm Chairs, Mitchell Gold + Bob Williams

I’m thinking of doing a new edition of Making it Yours around those chairs — I like them so much. And I’m just waiting on a frame to arrive and then I’ll photograph our bedroom update! I introduced a few changes to ground the pale pink everywhere and it has made all the difference.
