What Pastels To Choose?

If you hesitate over pastel shades to try, go for pastel blue and pink tones of any intensity, they will always work, especially blue, a sea color that is great for any bathrooms, especially for coastal and seaside ones. Pastel green and its shades is another popular idea for bathrooms as green and aqua shades are associated with ocean. You may also try pastel yellow and lilac tones if you want something special and unusual for bathrooms. Using only one or two pastel shades or playing with a whole color palette is up to you and the effect you want to create. Pair up your pastels with brass and gold for a chic look, with black for drama and with white or creamy shades for a fresh touch.
