A pink Christmas: 13 inspirational ideas for decorating the whole house in this romantic color

Amongst the colors we associate with Christmas, red, white, and green stand out. Perhaps gold and silver too, but rarely do we think of pink. However, with all the various shades this color comes in, you can create ornaments, decorations, and other trinkets for Christmas.

Tradition inspires us in terms of shapes, but colors can be unconventional. In terms of pink, we can use a soothing powder pink, a delicate candy pink, a playful fuchsia, or pair it with other colors reminiscent of candies. So many possibilities, and we provide you with some inspiration below:

Here's a synthetic Christmas tree, to be assembled and disassembled every year. Timeless, but also always the same. How can we liven things up? By buying one in an unexpected color like pink! There are a thousand shades to choose from!

And how about setting up a smaller one in the bedroom? Alternatively, it could be the ideal for the kid's room (especially if it already has a fairy-tale theme!).

Of course, even the baubles to hang up on the tree (or any other composition we want to set up in the house), can be in pink. And they come in all shapes, embellished with sequins, yarn, velvet, crepe paper, metal, wood, and more!

Have you ever thought that the chandelier/light fitting above the dining table is an ideal object to decorate? And in decorating it, why not choose pink ornaments? Or even more traditionally colored ones - but with pink ribbons securing them to the chandelier!

Another idea for using tree ornaments could be to create a wall decoration, like the cluster you see here, enhanced with lace ruffles.

And of course, you could always choose pink baubles to decorate table centerpieces.

If you like to scatter decorations around the house, on shelves, tables, and the furniture surfaces, why not use lots of little trees in various shades of pink, like the ones shown here?

Or use pinecones, which can be fun to paint in various colors (and shades of pink too!). And they're even more beautiful if you add a bit of glitter to them.

During the holidays, alchoholic drinks flow! Pink - or perhaps rather rosé - can be used to decorate the drinks caddy and all the related accoutrements.

All of us associate the poinsettia, also known as the Christmas Star, with the December holidays. It is an incredibly beautiful plant whose leaves also come in various shades of pink. What better decoration could there be?

Would you like to decorate your home in pink for this Christmas?
