Soft pastel colours are hugely popular at the moment and are no longer synonymous with nursery interiors. Powder blue tones can bring a lovely sense of calm and space in a room and a great way to inject some personality without it overpowering. You can easily mix pale pastel colours together or you can focus on one shade such as this lovely pale powder blue.
One way of injecting some pale powder blue into your home is through furniture and I’ve selected my favourites below:
1. Duck egg cotton love tub from Oliver Bonas £565 | 2. Oak dining table and 6 chairs from Oak Furniture Superstore £299 | 3. Powder blue double bed from Made.com £599 | 4. Pale blue colour dip side table from Notonthehighstreet.com £140 | 5. Baby blue bedside table from John Lewis £175
Top Tip: If you are going to use one colour in any room, make it interesting by adding some pattern with these beautiful pale blue and ivory cushions by Orla Kiely are so simple and yet beautiful and will bring a touch of vintage style to your sofa. You can also add various textures such as with this sumptuous Gabriella blanket from Laura Ashley.

A pastel blue bed from theheadboardworkshop.co.uk is a subtle but elegant way to add some colour into a bedroom. The subtle curved shape of the bedhead, which can be accentuated with Contrast Piping, sets off this delightful bed. Shown here in the beautiful Pure Cotton Duck Egg with Contrast Piping in Pure Cotton Snow. The two pale blue bedside lamps add a balance to the room and complement the bed very nicely.
