Paint has the power to alter the look and feel of a room completely, and one coat of it is all it takes. When a room seems cramped and dim, painting the walls a different shade can open up that room and give the illusion of more space.

And depending on the color you paint your walls, it can also influence your emotions in a positive way. Colors usually associated with happiness include bright warm hues, such as yellow, orange, and red.

You might be disinclined to paint a room bright orange, and I don’t blame you. Luckily, that’s not your only option. You can choose from other more subtle shades that work to create a brightening effect.

Pastels are a remarkable choice for those who don’t like to go bold but want something more colorful than classic neutral colors. In addition, these softer tones evoke calming and peaceful vibes.

If you want to fill your home with cheerful colors for springtime, here are five pastel paint picks that are guaranteed to both brighten up your home and be a mood booster.

Pink

Pink is a color that has been avoided for far too long. It’s reserved for little girls’ bedrooms and nothing else.

However, pastel pink is currently on the rise, with those throwing out traditional gender norms and simply selecting a color that makes them feel good.

Paint your office or bathroom a lovely shade of pastel pink to give the room a hint of sweetness. It’s soft and easy on the eyes compared to a vivid and flashy fuchsia.

Mint Green

This gentle, muted tone brightens up a room in a colorful way. When coupled with white surfaces, mint green contributes to a stylish and relaxing atmosphere.

It feels much more luxurious and refreshing than a dark green hue since it’s not so in-your-face. Mint green is a popular color because its soothing qualities can have a therapeutic effect on anyone who crosses its path.

Peach

Pale peach is perfect for anyone who doesn’t want to go pink but also doesn’t want to settle for boring beige. It has more personality than plain white but still gives off a delicate radiant glow.

Peach-toned walls have a certain airy lightness to them. To create feelings of warmth and coziness, coat your bedroom with peach wall paint. It pairs well with gray, and the contrasting colors make a room more inviting.

Lavender

Lavender is a chic and sophisticated color that simultaneously screams modernity and represents tranquility. It is an interesting alternative to your powdery blues and is more versatile than you think.

Some people like the look of black against lavender. Black can be a harsh color but small touches of it that appear on chairs, picture frames, or black-framed mirrors fit in well with the soft palette.

Yellow

You don’t need windows for a dose of sunshine to grace the interior of your home. Instead, instantly freshen up a room with pastel yellow. Yellow is a playful and energetic color.

It’s recommended for bathrooms, kitchens, and living rooms. Furthermore, it is wonderful for opening up a space and making it appear larger and brighter.
