All of the styles of spring are gorgeous, but often the pastels get ignored in favor of the brighter blooms. Nevertheless, pastel-colored flowers have their own special uniqueness of sending a softer, more muted message with pale tones that bring about relaxation and calm. It’s the main reason why pastels are used for celebrating births and are typically linked with Easter – the soft-hued colors of yellows, peaches, greens, blues, and light pinks are boost spirits and spreads joy in a quiet and serene manner.
Here at VanderSalm’s Flower Shop, Kalamazoo’s best florist, we like working with pastels and producing a bunch of unique and stunning styles with the splendors Mother Nature offers us during this time of year.
Pastel flowers have been known to open lines of communication with partners better than other colors of flowers, and they have a romantic nature associated with them that whispers your feelings of love rather than shouting it. Pastels are an excellent way to show those who are near and dear to you that they are always on your mind. Below we’ve listed a few of our favorite pastel-colored florals.
