Speaking of Pink
Posted by Betsy on Tuesday Aug 25, 2009 Under Love for ColorI really enjoyed Sarah’s post about the Pink Phoebe Howard room. It had me thinking about Pink and considering what my ultimate feelings are towards this color. As usual, I can’t quite grasp how I feel about our relationship and so now I’m on a journey of discovery. Each room pink will beg the question, do you love me!?
We will start with this one.
This image caught my eye at a mere 30×30 pixel thumbnail on a website where Bromeliad had pinged our DIY napkin pillow post… (Thanks Brom). And it spit me out here on this Abigail Ahern website. That’s the journey of how we met.
It was a pretty instantaneous intrigue. I am drawn to glossy painted furniture like birds are drawn to shiny things. And I’m really thinking that this uber pink on top of the charcoal gray will fit into my idea of what pretty is. So, if this pink were a boy in the subway, I’d maybe have a little fantasy about our life together.
But ultimately, I think we’d break up. He’s too bold for me, too sophisticated, to shiny. Maybe I couldn’t really be myself around him.
What do you think about this pink?

I am fine with the bright pink but do not like the dark charcoal walls and accessories. I think the bright pink would be more appealing with a less dark color like white or lime green combo.

Victorian with a modern twist. It’s way too dark for me personally, way too dramatic. You need less drama in your life not more.

I don’t think you’re a slick pink kind of girl. More of a gypsy pink like this:
