Some sugary sweet pastels are the perfect way to forget the cold winter grays. They can add freshness to any room in which they’re featured so if you want a soft soothing room, use pastels exclusively as your color palette.
You can use sky blue, sunshiny yellow, and soft spring greens in a mixture to brighten up a dull space and create a subtle rainbow effect, almost as if a prism is casting it’s magical glow around your space. When you choose a neutral color palette for your interior decor, pastel accents can enliven the space using soothing tones.
Pastels are often passed over in the world of design. This is because it is hard to keep a pastel room from becoming too saccharine. The trick is to use pastels judiciously, perhaps picking one decorating component for your pastel, such as only walls or only bedding or having the eye to be able to blend several pastels into the perfect balance. My best advice is when it comes to fabrics and accessories, keep the frills to a minimum and maintain an elegant touch.
