Saying Goodbye to Pink in a Girl’s Bedroom

Have you noticed how pink has dominated the doll shops lately? Pink is splashed in just about every element that is used inside girls’ bedrooms, nurseries, playrooms, etc. There are homes that do not prefer bubblegum pink or fuchsia for that matter. So, if you’re one of these homes, then here are ways to pick other concepts –

No to Pink Walls

One of the biggest mistakes that homeowners do when choosing a color palette for their daughter’s bedroom is to pick the wall color first. How about doing this the other way around this time?

Picking the wall color last means you won’t have to struggle with all the other design components. This means you will no longer feel constrained. You can still use a bit of pink with the other hues. Just make sure that the dominant colors are more interesting like yellow, orange, black, even stripes.

Since you have no wall color to pressure you into choosing design elements, then you can pick any style of bedding, rug, or draperies. You can also select the best comforter for your kid.

It also pays to involve your kid during the selection of the bedroom wall color. Tell your child that there’s a lot more than pink so she’s free to choose.

Find Another Color Inspiration

Always find a common ground for sisters who are sharing a bedroom. And make sure that there are no pressures from you or other adult relatives.

What’s hot in fashion today are stripes, florals, turquoise, emerald green, butterflies, mixed patterns, even faux finishes.

Femininity in Patterns, Textures and Shapes

Pink has always been associated with being feminine but this can still be conveyed with delicate patterns and curves. A curvy bed headboard complete with geometric upholstery can achieve this concept for you.

Rounded chair backs with slender legs also spell femininity. Circles can also be used to play a lead role in your chosen design. These can be used on bedding, rugs, walls and artwork.

Go Bold

What could be bolder than having a rainbow-colored room? Rainbow colors are bright hues that can be used on pillows, walls, and just about anything in a room.

Being bold also means setting up a study zone for your little one. Set up books and a play area so this means there must be ample storage units and seating.

Since this is also your chance to break away from pink, then create a modern vibe with unique colors such as electric blue. Believe also in the power of paint so go ahead and experiment – you can actually use four different hues at the same time. Imagine having tangy orange, bold raspberry, peach and sweet pink all together.

Don’t Forget to be Practical

While being feminine or pretty is important, you must also think of ways that the bedroom can be used beyond her childhood. Accessories, bedding, and paint colors can be changed but cabinets, nightstands, and the bed itself can be too huge to move out later on.

It also pays to have a style statement that is as unique as your little one. Use a monogram bedspread for a more classic look. Flower curtains are also fit for a little princess or a growing lady so be sure to emphasize these, too.

How about writing your little girl’s favorite poem on the wall? This project is easy enough even for a non-artist. The colors of the lettering should have contrasts so that the message will surely be read.

And how about having a polka dot theme? These cheerful spots will surely pop from a neutral background; plus, your daughter can keep this same theme up till she’s an adolescent.
