Peach Fuzz! Bring Pantone’s Colour of the Year into Your Kid’s Room

The Pantone Colour of the Year 2024 is here, and it’s… Peach Fuzz!

Pantone describes this shade as a ‘velvety gentle peach whose all-embracing spirit enriches heart, mind, and body’. They chose it for its warm and nurturing feel, as well as its association with compassion and community – qualities that are very much needed in our turbulent modern world.

Peach Fuzz’s soothing attributes make this cosy pink-orange shade perfect for the kid’s bedroom. If you’re redecorating this year, here are some ideas for how you can incorporate Peach Fuzz into your little one’s space. Get ready for a peachy night’s sleep!

1. Peach Prints

What could go better with Peach Fuzz than peaches?

Whether it’s by using patterned wallpaper behind your kid’s bed, bedding or accessories, peach prints are a great way to bring this fruity shade into the kid’s room and add a fun, summery feel.

2. Pair with Natural Materials

The soft pink shade of Peach Fuzz pairs perfectly with natural textures such as wood, rattan, jute and bamboo, which will also add depth to your child’s bedroom.

For example, hang a macramé wall-hanging, cover the floor with a jute rug, or throw a chunky hand-knitted blanket over your little one’s bed.

Alternatively, if your kid’s bedroom needs more storage, use rattan baskets alongside Peach Fuzz-coloured furniture for an on-trend bohemian look. The organic texture of rattan is perfect for bringing a touch of the natural world in.

3. Salmon Soft Furnishings

Adding soft pink furnishings to your child’s room is an easy and non-committal way to adopt the Peach Fuzz trend.

Our Lifetime Breeze Semi-High Sleeper Bed has a fabric roof and optional matching play curtain that are available in 3 colours – including this stunning peach colour. When you fancy a change, simply change or dye the fabric to create a whole new look.

4. Mix with Mustard & Plants

Wondering what colours go with Peach Fuzz? We recommend mustard and olive green, particularly if your Peach Fuzz shade veers towards terracotta. Oh, and plenty of plants!

When it comes to furniture, dark wood contrasts perfectly with the softer Peach Fuzz to create a bold and contemporary look.

Our Vox Vintage furniture collection mixes mid-century retro style, oak wood and plaster pink drawer fronts that go perfectly with gold and greenery.
