I'm not exactly sure when my love affair with pink and green began - probably sometime around 1979 - but even though I've grown up, I haven't grown out of it. My bridesmaids' dresses were pink and green and my own closet is covered in the color combo. My house, though - not so much (it just wouldn't be fair to my very masculine husband and son).
But that doesn't mean I can't browse and appreciate great uses of pink and green in the home. Like these:

| The inspiration for this whole ideabook came from this photo in Becky's Dorothy Draper ideabook. I love the sophisticated use of two colors that are often found mostly in little girls' rooms. |

One little bright green stuffed animal offers great balance to this room's pinks.

| Pink and green is a natural color combo outside. We have a tree in our front yard that looks just like this - for about two weeks a year. For the next two weeks, it looks like we've had a pink snowstorm just in our yard. |

I love this hot pink, and the way it works with just a little green and lots of white.

I absolutely love this bed - it would be great in a lot of rooms, but I think it's fabulous in this pale pink space.

Without the small green accents, this pink would surely be overwhelming (even with the white bed). But with the green, it looks great.

I can't lie - I love Lilly Pulitzer! Her patterns are great on clothes, but they're also fantastic in little spurts, like on pillows.

Sometimes creating a perfect color combination is simply a matter of adding a couple of flowers with some strong green leaves.

Becky Harris Always been a favorite of my preppy behind. My all time favorite Lilly print is "Shrimp Cocktail" where a bunch of shrimp are drinking out of martini glasses.

Kit Pollard So cute. I have a newer print (I can't remember its name) with margarita glasses and lime wedges. Lilly really does embrace a lifestyle I can get behind.

Pamela Rosenberg These are my colors too and I have been thinking about adding aqua to the mix. You know, my summer version :) of my spaces. So I love the image of the chair and pillow.
