Think Pink!

Pink is one of the most flattering hues, and there’s no reason to save it for Valentine’s Day or baby showers.

Peony print, available in four sizes, $3-$18. Milkwort botanical print, available in three sizes, $5-$18.

I have three sons, so there hasn’t been a lot of pink around the house, but I did have a pink dining room for a while. It cast everyone in a warm glow, and I’m certain that can’t be attributed to the wine, because my boys were young then, and they looked just as rosy.

Couleur Nature Pink Vine placemat, $12.

I know some people dismiss pink as cloying, but I like it still. Not every shade, of course. I don’t think I own one thing that’s fuchsia. And while I don’t have any pink rooms now, I do enjoy an accessory here and there.

Large cake stand, $70. Small cake stand, $40.

Jenny Steffens Hobick’s shop, JSH Home, features great products in pink that perk up your home year round. Table runners, napkins, and tablets, all of which feel fresh to me now in the dreariness of winter. (Pink does work nicely with gray after all.)

Tall paper tablet, $12. Fine felt tip pen, $4.

While her prints warm up the walls, the pink cake stand is a perfect spot for treats. Heart-shaped cookies? Those would certainly attract Cupid’s arrow.
