How to Decorate a Bedroom With Light Pink Walls With Black & White

Paint bedroom walls pink to give the space a soft look.

Decorating a bedroom featuring light pink walls with black and white decor will give the space a glamorous look. Light pink walls make a bedroom look soft and inviting, while black and white textiles, decor pieces and furniture lend a touch of sophistication. Use classic movies and vintage decor styles as inspiration when decorating the room. A light pink, black and white color scheme is versatile in that it will work in bedrooms for people of all ages.

Things You'll Need

• Black and white bedding
• Black wood or acrylic bedroom furniture
• Vintage photos in frames
• Black rugs
• Vases of fresh pink flowers
• Black and white lighting elements

Instructions

1. Decorate the bed with a black and white comforter or quilt featuring a sophisticated pattern, such as toile or fleur-de-lis. Pick a zebra-striped bed covering for an exotic touch. Enhance the bed with light pink satin or velvet throw pillows to create a cohesive look.

2. Choose black wood or acrylic furniture, such as a matching headboard, dresser, vanity table, desk and night stand set. Update light wood furniture by painting it black if you're decorating on a budget.

3. Hang vintage black and white photos on the walls in black or shiny silver frames. Display old family photos or images of classic movie stars.

4. Add warmth and softness to tile or hardwood floors with plush black rugs. Place one large rug in the center of the room as a focal point, or set several smaller rugs around the bedroom.

5. Give the bedroom a sweet scent with fresh flowers. Place pink roses in antique milk glass or sleek black ceramic vases, and display them on a night stand, vanity table or wall shelf.

6. Choose black and white lighting elements. Hang a chandelier featuring shimmering black and clear crystals from the ceiling in the center of the bedroom. Place a lamp with a black base and a white shade rimmed with danging black crystals on a night stand or a work desk.
