With spring in full force, Easter just behind us, and the world a bit on the heavy side these days, there’s nothing like Benjamin Moore’s Pale and Pastel Paint Colors to add life and vibrance to a room.

With names such as Blue Bonnet 2050-70, Peach Parfait 2175-70, Urban Nature AF-440, and Head Over Heels AF-250, you already feel peace, love and tranquility, if not a bit hungry.



Substitute Pale and Pastel for Neutral Colors for a Refreshing Look and Feel


It’s been said that real men wear pink and we’d like to add that real men aren’t afraid to substitute pale and pastel with Neutral Colors for a Refreshing Look and Feel.

Benjamin Moore’s pink hues exude feelings of inspiration and versatility. Colors such as Dusty Trail 1157 add a fresh twist to a living room, office, or bonus room. Complement a wall painted in Dusty Trail with window trim painted in Halo OC-46. Splash some color in the room with accent pillows, colored sofas, drapes, or accessories.

Adding a pale color doesn’t have to take over the entire room. Think of Benjamin Moore’s Pale and Pastel Paint Colors as accent pieces, discussion, points, or trendy topics at the water cooler.



Add Contrast to Benjamin Moore’s Pale and Pastel Paint Colors For a Bold, Eye-Popping Vibe



A color such as Peach Parfait 2175-70 is a delight on its own, but when contrasted with Downpour Blue 2063-20, you get a bold, eye-popping vibe.

Prefer the soothing color of blue? Paint a room with Ocean Air 2123-50 and pair it with whites and neutrals for a calming, home by the sea shore feeling.
