Another gorgeous kids room with scalloped walls! I’m a big fan of this look, it’s so cute and playful, an a great way to add interest to a family simple bedroom design. Although the design is fairly simple, it’s incredibly effective. The pink walls make the perfect backdrop for the lovely Ikea bed frame, while the bedding, cushions, and chair all work together to create a warm and cosy colour scheme.

If you’re thinking about painting your nursery in this gorgeous colour, this is a great example of how great it can look. The muted greens of the wallpaper work together with the pink walls to create a balanced look that could work just as well in a nursery as it would in a master bedroom. It just goes to show how timeless this colour is! A light coloured carper, footstool, and shaggy rug keep the space feeling fresh and bright—a wonderful combination!

If you’re not sure about painting your walls pink, you can always use it in smaller amounts such as on the woodwork and trim or even the furniture. This beautiful bedroom adds a splash of pink with the Parisian armoire, adding warmth and personality to the otherwise neutral space.

Your front door shouldn’t be forgotten either! If you have a wooden front door, adding a lick of fresh paint can work wonders. It’s one of the easiest exterior home improvements you can do, and it can make a big impact on the curb appeal of your home. Sulking Room Pink can work really well on a front door, creating a wonderful first impression and a warm welcome for any guests to your home.
