    Pink walls...For and against???

    Just wondering how many have opted for pink walls for a girl's room? What sort of colour scheme did you go with and how important was choosing the *exact* shade of pink in getting the look you wanted. How flexible did you find the colour (have you been able to change the soft furnishings without having to repaint)...any other recommendations for painting with pink?

    Or...for those who have avoided the pink, is it totally a crime against a female child to subject her to a pink room ??

    My DD1 has pink and purple walls...the pink is called gin pink and is the colour of musk lollies
    DD2 has a green room...the colour of peppermint icecream with amazing wallpaper butterflies on it.
    We painted DD2's room when i was still pregnant so thats the reason for green.
    I had pretty pink walls when i was little and there nothing wrong with me so I keep telling ppl anyways

    I feel ripped off for never having had a pink room as a little girl! It is a sin to deny your daughters the right to live in a girly wonderland
    Sorry, no advice as I have no experience (my room was a drab blue-grey, same as every other room in the house ), but good luck finding the perfect shade for your DD

    I say go for it! If we owned DD would demand a red wall, a white wall and 2 walls with thick black and white stripes. I think one colour would be heaps easier LOL!

    Depends on your daughter - I would have died if my parents painted my room pink! However I was (and still am) the most non-girly-girl that I know...

    If I had a DD I'd talk to her about what she liked - I'd prefer hot pink myself, I detest baby-girl-pink...
