Our house outside Charlotte has late-1990s builder finishes oak trim, brass fixtures, and a pretty standard layout so…

Last spring, my 6-year-old daughter announced that her bedroom needed “more pink, like everywhere,” which is how I ended up researching Pink Passion Rugs at 9 p.m. on a Tuesday. We’d done her room in soft sage green when we moved in back in 2022, and apparently sage was no longer cutting it. What started…
