Lighten Up Your Furniture

Furniture might not be the first thing to come to mind when considering where to add pastels, but I absolutely recommend it. This mint green softens the more industrial texture of the wall and picks up some of the leafy color of the plant—win win! If you're painting furniture yourself, opt for white or light-colored pieces (or prime them first) to keep the pastel nice and soft.
