A Passion for Pink!

Anyone who knows me, knows my passion for pink!  A somewhat controversial color, but I've always been inclined to it - notice the background color on my blog!

Some people seem to think it's too girly, or too much fluff......or whatever, but at the same time, it offers comfort, softness and calmness. 

We know that soft pink lighting in a room creates a relaxing feeling and that soft pink lighting at a dressing table softens one's features.  Soft pink in a bedroom offers calm and serenity and what could be more beautiful than an arrangement of soft pink flowers.....the final touch to any color room as it is so neutral!  Sometimes, just a pink accent will soften a look.

Pink with gold accents....gorgeous!  And pink, green and cream.....my all time favorite color combination....just cannot go wrong with that one!

Here are a few of my favorite images.....including a touch of whimsy!
