8 pictures that prove pastel pink can work in every room

Pastels are still trending. - by Laura Barry

8 pictures that prove pastel pink can work in every room

Pastel-hued furniture and homewares is having a real moment. While anything in white, black, beige, navy or cream will always be a timeless classic, pastel colours are bang-on-trend. 

However, you might be surprised to learn that pastel colours are quite versatile and can be used in almost any room. Not to mention, anything pastel-coloured with blend in seamlessly with your Kmart, Target or Big W homewares - and we love big style on a small budget. 

1. The dining room

Pastel pink can work in any room or space and for any occasion. Here, the dining table has been dressed to the nines with stonewares in delightful pastel shades.

2. The bathroom 

The bathroom can be an expensive room to redecorate, so you want to get it right. Fortunately, pastel pink works with any metallic finish, from matte black tapware to chrome, brass and gold fixtures. 

3. The living room

The living room needs to feel calm, quiet and cosy - and pastel pink is just the right shade for the job.

4. The laundry 

Look at something pretty while you sort the lights from the darks, and pair a pastel pink base with muted green cabinetry. 

5. The study 

No one likes a cluttered or uninspiring workplace, so add some energy to this room with a pop of pink.

6. The bedroom

Make your bedroom feel lush and cosy with pastel pink bedding made from velvet, cotton and linen. 

7. The kitchen

This workhorse space can be expensive to makeover, so just overhaul the bits and pieces instead. Go for an all-pink colour palette for mugs, plates, trays and appliances.

8. The front door

Does it get any cuter than a pastel pink door? We think not.
