DD has one wall in a strawberry milkshake type pink with all white furniture and white photo frames and mirror on the pink wall. I've had lots of positive comments - one person commented on how calming the room feels.
She has hot pink sheets on her bed with a green/white spotted quilt cover and I love the combination (and I never thought I'd do the pink thing at all if I had a girl) I don't think there's many colours that wouldn't go well with the wall, actually.
When she's old enough to request a change, that's ok too. It's only one wall.
DD is almost 9 and we painted her room pink last Christmas. She loves it and loves having her friends over to show off her pink room! We actually bought a 4 litre misstint from the paint factory, perfect and cheap!!
The lady also gave us a tip, if you need to undercoat, just buy paint in a lighter colour than the coulour you are going to paint, so we bought a very light pink from the misstints too All up, the paint cost us $20!
DD1 just painted her wall hot pink!! She 18 and pink is still her favourite colour as is DD2s so I am happy for them to have pink rooms if thats what they want. We have rented for most of their lives so this is the 1st time we have let them choose their colour schemes.
ooohhh i am loving this thread! i have visions of painting the wall around DDs fireplace a dusty pink...but wasnt sure if i was going a bit OTT lol! the room needs some colour, even though we have a gorgeous and massive tree wall sticker thingy, there is still something missing in terms of depth for the room...and i do like dusty pinks etc...and well, DD is a pink fiend....
