A Pastel Palette!

Easter is the only time of year I am drawn to pastels. Maybe it is the memory of sweet colored pinafore dresses as a little girl or pastel colored eggs, I am just drawn to the color palette! The combination of spring sunshine and the hope we will see beautiful blades of green grass sprouting up everywhere is just so optimistic! Here are a few pictures I have collected over the last few weeks of pretty pastels and one sweet girl! Enjoy your weekend!

Julieann, lovely photos! I have a question for you. How do you feel about beds in front of windows? I ask you this because in our new guest room, we have a large arched window (about 7 feet in length) and the room itself would work better with the bed on that wall...there is another possibility but it's slightly less optimal... just was interested in your thoughts.

Hi Diana! Thanks for asking. I think it would look great in front of such a dramatic sized window, it would almost act as a headboard. My rule of thumb is to always work with a room and not against the natural flow. So with that said I say GO for it & please share pics after : )
Also here is a few more opinions as I had posted about this very question a while back:
