Tips to follow when using pastel colours in your home décor
Mix and match pastel shades: While, overall, pastel may sometimes come across as a little overwhelming, mixing and matching complementing pastel hues would be an ideal way to go. This way, you do not run the risk of going overboard or creating a monotonous impact. The sky is your limit, since there is an array of soft pastel shades you can experiment with.
Use pastel colours in accessories: If you are not in favour of using pastel colours in wall paints, etc., you can always go for furnishings items such as cushions and throws-pillows in pastel shades, in your home decor. It is ideal for upholstery and soft furnishings, as demonstrated in some pictures above. Candy colours and sugar shades like power pink and minty green would be the perfect choice to get that much-loved pastel prettiness in your abode.
In the bedroom, bedside lamps and throw pillows in pastel hues would work wonders and make the space serene and fun at the same time. In your living room, you can simply go for a large statement piece in pastel tones, like a large sofa, etc. The best part about using pastel colours as a statement piece is that it does not involve overall changes leading to expensive redecorating.

Use pastel colours in kitchen wares: Pastel shades are common in modern kitchens – from your China dinner sets and opulent-looking crockery, to smaller items like bread bins, toasters, electric kettles, etc. Using pastels themes in your kitchen adds simplicity and elegance while also adding the fun factor in your overall home décor theme.
Match pastel colours with neutral tones: Pastel hues work like magic when used along with neutral shades like white and grey. A splash of peach, pink or beige can be enough to add a bit of drama in an otherwise pared-down colour palette.
Go for bold and beautiful mixing: If you are feeling a bit bold you could also mix and match one dominant pastel colour with another.
Geometric prints in pastel hues work wonders: Geometric prints are enormously popular these days, from cushions to carpets designs. Other than neutral hues, colours from the pastel palette go remarkably well in geometric prints.
Know when it is too much pastel: Excessive use of pastel colours could sometimes seem saccharine-sweet. To avoid this, combine it with neutral shades.
Start slow: If you are new to this and want to spend a limited amount of time doing your experiment with pastel colours, go for wallpapers that allow you to bring home this colour scheme. In case you think pastel colours are not for you, it would be easy to go back to your old theme or change it, as you deem fit.
