Color Palette: Positively Pastel

This color palette collection is brought to you by my daughter, Madeline, one of my junior designers this summer, who chose the images and colors of the six all new color palettes below. Madeline loves pastel colors because they’re cute and mellow. The soft soothing tones of pastels can feel downright dreamy. We’ve also included some of the best pastel color combinations from collections past!

Pastel colors are like candy for the soul.
