These pinks tend to be a rich\u00a0rose or a coral blush and are perfect for adding a splash of color to many\u00a0different palettes. Recently, Pantone named a delicate pink color, rose\u00a0quartz, as a Pantone 2016 color of the year. <!--more--><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-11058 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.behr.com\/colorfullybehr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/01\/cupcake-Pink-M160-1.jpg\" alt=\"A paint drop representing the color: Cupcake Pink\" width=\"740\" height=\"364\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.behr.com\/colorfullybehr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/01\/cupcake-Pink-M160-1.jpg 740w, https:\/\/www.behr.com\/colorfullybehr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/01\/cupcake-Pink-M160-1-300x148.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 740px) 100vw, 740px\" \/> Our matching color, Cupcake\u00a0Pink M160-1, is very subtle and lends itself to broad decorating strokes,\u00a0making\u00a0it easy to add to a home. The secret to making cupcake pink blend and complement,\u00a0not stand out awkwardly, is to pair it with warm neutrals. These can be\u00a0soft, like silver gray or almond cream or rich, like spiced berry or coral. A whisper of pink on the walls, when paired with neutral shades of warm\u00a0gray, creamy white and pale almond, gives a room a crisp, expansive look.\u00a0To bring more depth the room, use midtones of green, purple, rich brown\u00a0or gold for the trim and accent pieces. <img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-11056 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.behr.com\/colorfullybehr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/01\/Cupcake-Pink-bedroom.jpg\" alt=\"A bedroom with the headboard and footboard painted in Cupcake Pink.

Use cupcake pink on one large piece in a bedroom, perhaps on\u00a0the headboard, and add coordinating accents with pillows, bed linens and\u00a0rugs in shades of pink and red. Balance it all with warm neutrals everywhere\u00a0else. <img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-11055 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.behr.com\/colorfullybehr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/01\/cupcake-pink-bath.jpg\" alt=\"A bathroom with walls painted in Cupcake Pink.\" width=\"740\" height=\"529\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.behr.com\/colorfullybehr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/01\/cupcake-pink-bath.jpg 740w, https:\/\/www.behr.com\/colorfullybehr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/01\/cupcake-pink-bath-300x214.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 740px) 100vw, 740px\" \/>\u00a0 Bathrooms are perfect for this shade of pink, especially those\u00a0with white or cream hard surfaces. Use it for the towels, window treatments\u00a0and rugs, but mix these up with autumn russet, toasted walnut, thyme green\u00a0or igloo blue so the room doesn&#8217;t stray into cuteness. <img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-11057 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.behr.com\/colorfullybehr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/01\/Cupcake-pink-door.jpg\" alt=\"A interior entryway painted in gray and white with the doors painted in Cupcake Pink\" width=\"740\" height=\"795\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.behr.com\/colorfullybehr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/01\/Cupcake-pink-door.jpg 740w, https:\/\/www.behr.com\/colorfullybehr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/01\/Cupcake-pink-door-279x300.jpg 279w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 740px) 100vw, 740px\" \/> A whole room doesn&#8217;t\u00a0have to be dedicated to pinkness. A coat of cupcake pink on the inside\u00a0of the front door might be just the small touch needed to update the look\u00a0of a home, especially one with country cottage decor. A funky and unusual\u00a0light fixture in pink could be the one thing needed to reanimate a dining\u00a0nook. Think pink this spring and use our Behr color, cupcake pink, to\u00a0bring composure to yourself and your surroundings.<br \/>\nColorfully yours,<br \/>\nErika<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Emulating the soft, rosy glow\u00a0of a pink sky at sunset, Cupcake Pink \u00a0M160-1 is a soothing, serene shade that\u00a0brings a feeling of calmness to interior spaces.
