This post is for lovely reader Ashley who is on a quest to find the colors used on three of her favorite rooms. I do not have access to the exact colors used in each room pictured on this site, but lets try nonetheless! The colors picked out is a happy medium of the colors in each picture, because the lighting and shadows greatly affect the color perception.

So, lets go!

Be inspired by these gorgeous photographs by Donna Griffith:

*

Beautiful pink details. Pink feather wreath with Christmas glitter balls!

*

This detail photo is pretty. A stack of different style pink plates on soft pink fabric.

*

This bedroom is decorated in the same colors as the fabric pattern on the headboard. Beachy and fun!

*

Cute detail for concealing clutter: a shelf valance.

You can see more gorgeous photos like these on Donna’s site!

Chandelier covered in Barbie’s honey blond hair, ballerina-skirt chairs and Barbie portrait is part of this girly living room.

This bedroom looks great! Lovely cherry red and crisp white. Barbie monograms on bed-set and her profile engraved in mirror.

*

Mirror makeup table complete with Barbie products and hairdryer.

*

White orange and hot pink living room.

*

Hot pink poodles!!

Oh, and a new take on the ever-so-modern sun mirror!

Lets take a look at some light bright living rooms:

Soft pink, peach and beige. Here is a good balance between pattern and monochromatic, making the room interesting but not intense.

Soft blue, crisp white and a light grey. This classic room is modernized by adding mirror tables. I would never get tables like that, look at all the finger prints…ugh.

Cream and white. Otherwise, the room is nice.

Here are more examples of how to use pink in your interior:

Bedroom:

A peachy pink with white and with mirror details makes a soft yet posh room.

Wall:

Hot pink wall with brown interior. Btw, is that chair made out of a chiffon scarf? Maybe it is a lucite chair with a scarf draped on it, I don’t know…

Living room:

Soft pink and white with dark green and yellow accents.

Bathroom:

Pink and white with maroon detail.

Bedroom:

Medium pink with white and brown. This combo is a lot softer than the usual pink/white/black combo, although a bit more bland.

Nursery:

A great medium tone pink with white. This is adorable.

Now lets take a look into Betsey Johnson’s all-pink apartment:

Betsey has painted her entire apartment in pink, has black floors and white, pink or yellow furniture, depending on the room. This is a great way to separate a larger space of one wall color, into smaller ones (you can see the dining area in the background of the living room island in sec. pic up). This color magic in combination with ceiling lamps (rugs also works well for this), divides a large room into separate spaces.
