Do you like it? Would you like to see it in scrapbook collections? If so, what colors do you think would work well with it? For our pink haters, what do you think of this as an alternative?

It’s a HUGE nope from me. Having only just gotten rid of that colour off every. Single. Surface. In our nineties house (walls, tiles, doors, trim) just last December it’s just too soon for me 🤣

I am not a fan of orangey pinks. I hope Le Creuset doesn't make anything with that color.
I can see Fiestaware making items with that color as it is similar to a retired color. The seem to be bringing back old retired colors with a new name and about 5-10% change to the OG color.
As far as crafting...no. Don't want to see anything with that color. Does nothing for me and I am a pink gal.

I can’t see it. So is a salmon pink? Coral?

I was watching a video on YouTube where they painted a door this color and said "Noooooo," outloud. I guess I see it as every dr. and dentist office painting from the 90's. We stayed in a condo on the Jersey shore and the entire place was done in this 90's color palette. It hurt my eyes. For me, it just has too much white in it. I don't usually care for colors that lean towards pastels.
I can see that it could be very popular with people who haven't really experienced it in a large quantity. Kind of like big pleated pants and anything coming around for the 2nd, 3rd, or 4th time. Sometimes it just leaves a negative response in your brain.

In our nineties house (walls, tiles, doors, trim) just last December it’s just too soon for me 🤣 I think it's a really pretty colour, but I get what you're saying.... Our bath tub and bathroom sink, in our house built in 1985, were that colour until we finally got around to renovating our bathrooms about six years ago. I would wear that colour, I have a couple of t-shirts similar to that. And I would definitely use it on a scrapbook page.

Nope. Maybe if I just saw the color on something like a shirt, or a piece of furniture, but that photo with the two people reminds me of babies still in the womb videos I had to watch in high school health class.

I think Shimelle will be happy - she's all about peach, if it's the proper shade. I'm neutral on it. I wouldn't wear it, it's not my color, but I don't mind it showing up in papercraft collections or other items. I guess it also depends on what it's paired with to avoid any 80s or 90s flashbacks.

I like it - I think paired with greys it'll be perfect for sunrise/sunset photos and also for pics of my grey Dusty and orange Pad-Bear kitty

These comments are hilarious. You all have brought back to my memory how big this color was in 80s home decor. I feel like I see a lot of this in Cocoa Vanilla collections. Or at least something similar. I'm thinking of the These Days collection. I think I'd like it with navy or other shades of blue.

Nope. Nope. NOPE. I don’t need plastic doll skin/bandaid color in my scrapbooking (or home decor). Pass.

I like peach but am not interested in incorporating it into my wardrobe or home decor. Peach (&/or coral) has already replaced (&/or been added to) pink in collections released during the past year+. IMHO peach pairs well with navy, charcoal, grey, &/or white.

I like it. It’s a softer version of orange which is a color I can’t wear. Peach works better for me. I have a few shirts in that color but definitely wouldn’t want an entire outfit in that color. I’d also use it in a layout. And I wouldn’t use it for decor in my home.

I don't hate it. I wouldn't want it in my house and I definitely wouldn't wear it, but I'm ok to use it on my pages.

I love it but I think its because as PaperAngel said, it looks good with navy (my fave color) and greys/whites (my second fave)

Do not like. Shall avoid in all forms, just as I did in the 80's and 90's.

This is one of those colours I've always liked, a soft peach blush. I don't want to paint my walls this shade but I love it on my nails. I just bought a tulle flutter wing dress in a lighter shade of peach blush during Black Friday as well. It's a luminous, happy but non-intrusive colour and I wasn't traumatised by it in the 1990s so I'm good. Also, it's right in the continuation of the massive lilac wave we've had. So, so beautiful together. Also gorgeous with periwinkle and baby blue, not just navy. And just as pretty with sage green, another shade that has been extremely popular these past 5 or so years. I'm not at all surprised to see this super soft coral make another comeback. I do find it's already been present quite a bit in scrapbook collections for years now. Nothing new. Nothing groundbreaking. We don't need more of it either. But spring and Easter lines often feature peach blush.

I like it with some *asterisks 😂
NO for home decor. It still looks dated to me. I can see some super young home designers using it in an updated way, but that isn’t my aesthetic (aka I’m not trendy like that). Not full walls of it, but pillows with that color running through the design.
YES for shirt wearing, nail color or lip color. It’s a pretty, pretty color on me and I’m here for wearing it! Not all at the same time, but little bits of it.
YES for scrapping. I prefer this over true pink. I really dislike pink. I can handle this though. It feels less girly.

I love it. It’s a beautiful color and it would pair well with yellow (my fave) or navy, even black.
