Think pink | printables...

The TomKat Studio created these pink party circles for Breast Cancer Awareness Month. Her post truly shows the spirit of why I have been posting so much pink this month. Check it out for the free printable and to read a heart-touching essay from a girl whose mother battled breast cancer.

Think pink | library themed wedding...

It would be pretty much impossible for me to love this library themed wedding [seen at Style Me Pretty] anymore than I already do. Creative save the dates, beautiful flowers, amazing dessert bar, personalized details, incredible stationary...this wedding has it all.

Think pink | and sage green...

Pink and green is one of my favorite color combinations and this might be one of the most beautiful ways I have seen the colors used. The rosy pink and sage green are gorgeous together and the details in this dessert bar are amazing. [Found via Pepper Design Blog]

These cookies would be perfect for Valentine's Day or a bridal shower...

Think pink | and gray...

I love the pink and gray combination - it works perfectly in this living room.


Life and Style has six more great pink and gray decor combos [including one from my posting pink last year]. She also has a really cute pink and gray outfit idea. :)

Think pink | 10 past posts...

Since today is 10.10.10, it seemed fitting to do something pink with the number ten. So, here are ten of my past posts with pink in them. :)


  1. Pink pretzels - After this post, these became one of my must-haves for every party / get-together.
  2. Wedding memories - Our wedding was full of pink...flowers, candy, decor, dresses, etc. My favorite pink memory was when my grandma mailed me the picture of the pink dress she wanted to buy for the wedding. Pink was her favorite color and she was so excited to have a reason to buy a new pink dress.
  3. Colorful peg board
  4. Preteen bedroom mood board
  5. Pink taking over our guest bedroom
  6. Paper chain backdrop

Think pink | idea cards...

I love paint chips and looking at the paint combinations on the chips. So, it only makes sense that I think the idea cards on the True Value website are really cool.

Think pink | vintage Barbie...

Seeing this vintage Barbie birthday party was a complete flashback for me. My sister and I used to always have these Barbie doll cakes when we were little!

Think pink | girls bedrooms

I love the combination of pink and black for bedrooms. It was the color scheme I used for my room for a few years in college. It can be fun, sophisticated, girly, classy, cute, etc. There are five fun examples of pink and black girls bedrooms at Design Dazzle...

Think pink | candy buffets...

I love everything about candy buffets - the colors, the containers, the whole display and, of course, the yummy candy. Here are some great candy buffets with lots of pink candy...




I am particularly fond of the navy and pink one, since it is the same colors we used in our wedding and for our candy buffet.

Bench before and after...

A long, long time ago, I bought an incredibly ugly bench I found on Craigslist. The bench was 100% covered in ugly floral fabric and Mr. W thought I was 100% crazy for buying it. But I had been wanting a bench for our bedroom forever and saw definite potential in this one. So, I bought it, ripped off all the floral fabric, sanded down the legs and then left it for sitting there naked for months. Why? Because I was looking for the perfect fabric and perfect paint for the legs. After finally making up my mind, I painted the legs a soft shade of gray and recovered the cushion in a pretty blue-green fabric. I couldn't be happier with the way it turned out.

Think pink | birdie baby showers...

Baby showers are the perfect opportunity for adorable pink details. Here are two cute birdie themed showers...

This gender reveal baby shower has the perfect pink details for announcing that it's a girl. Check out the Creative Party Place for more photos and all the adorable details.



My favorite idea in this second party is the use of pink and green colored water to carry out the color scheme. It is such a simple and inexpensive idea but makes a big impact. For more photos, check out the full post at Swanky Tables.

Think pink | accents...

For Breast Cancer Awareness Month, I'll be thinking pink with my posting. Pink interiors. Pink parties. Pink. Pink. Pink.


I love how the pink in this house isn't overwhelming. The pink makes the home feel fresh and clean, not overly girly. Check out Inspiring Interiors for more photos of this home.
