Decorating with the color Coral
Coral is having a moment right now in home decor! That is thanks in part to “Living Coral” being Pantone’s Color of the Year. It is a fresh new color that works if you aren’t into pink, but are a bit timid to decorate with orange (because who isn’t?). It also has become a standout color in home decor because of its capability to bring about optimism in a space. I discovered I too was falling for this color and rounded up some of my top coral items for the home below:
Wallpaper: There are a lot of options out there, but this is one of my fave coral ones by Hygge & West. I also have added additional options from them below.
Coral Reef Sculpture - Sure, you can find the ever popular white faux coral sculpture at any major decor store, but for a twist, this is a great alternative by Ballard Designs. While this is a bit more pink than true coral color, it is still worth mentioning. It would also pair nicely with bold or navy blue accents.
Decorative Pillows - The top pillow is one of my favorite pillow prints currently. This particular one is a handmade pillow cover on Etsy by Indigo Bliss Boutique. It’s modern, traditional, bold all in one! And because I can’t pick just one, I added a few more options. All images are linked to product.
Decorative Jars & Vases - You don’t have to go big with this coral trend to make an impact. A beautiful piece like one of these ginger jars or vases is enough to standout in a space!
Fabric - While there are so many options, these are some of my fave coral fabric options currently.
Whether big or small, coral can definitely uplift a space. And to further the inspiration, here’s some overall room looks making a big splash with coral:
Fresh take on a comfortable contemporary living room with coral walls.
A little coral here makes this laundry room the place you’d want to be.
If you think you can’t work coral into your indoor home decor, why not try the exterior decor? This is a great patio look accented in coral. I love how well it pairs with wicker here for a coastal laidback look.
Perhaps one of the most beautiful bathrooms! For those looking to make a bold statement, this is a great example how coral can even work for furniture and cabinets.
