Why Easter Decor Matters
I walked into a living room where the mantel was covered in eggs that had been collected from hens and painted in colors that were visible but quiet and the sofa had pillows that were embroidered with patterns that suggested spring without announcing it. Easter living rooms work when the season is doing the whispering.

Soft pastels aren’t just colors – they’re an emotional experience:
- Blush Pink: Warmth and tenderness
