watery blues and lush greens. Moving in another direction, just past hot pink, and you are going to get into some of the most luscious light pinks and blushes that lend themselves to every room in the house. They are fresh and some of the new hues are so saturated with rich color, you expect them to smell like the flowers they mimic. The right pink just makes you happy.
Layer a variety of red and pink shades in a room. Mix the colors through fabrics and rugs. It’s always easy to find a good-looking shade of either color in a great piece of art if you just want to add a little spark to a room. And if you have a bold personality just looking for an opportunity to be heard, a small red or pink lacquer table or chest does a lot of talking. Be confident and just do it!
February is the month of love. From pink heart candy that asks someone to “Be Mine” to red roses that tell someone “I’m glad you’re mine,” we are surrounded by pink and red. Why not add some brightness to your world all year long. Try adding some red and pink into your home style and fall in love with these two enduring colors all over again.
