@ Pastel Checkerboard
"That's interesting, what the tour guide was just saying," remarked Sweety. "The colour blue was considered inferior and low class until about the 12th century when it became the colour of the cloak of Virgin Mary. As the image become more widespread, blue was seen as far more respectable and worthy of reverence."
"It's funny how things change, isn't it?" replied Baby.

Door Duo
Two almost identical front doors, one peach-coloured, the other pink, guard entry to these terraced houses—which couldn't look more British if they tried! Can we guess though that once past the door, the interior of each house will be completely different to the other as regards furniture and decor?

@ Lone Tree Hill
"It says in our brochure that pastels are also known as 'tints' and are pale tones of colours made by mixing a significant amount of white into the original shade. So, for example, a pastel green would be a paler shade of green. I never really knew that exactly, Tasi!"
"Nor me, Baby!"

@ Sunrise, Sunset
"Pastels are peaceful and calming. They have a softer look that’s easier on the eyes. This can inspire a calming, soothing, peaceful vibe."

@ Curious Chickadee
Oh look ... an appropriately coloured pet!
Curious Chickadee
What a cutie-pie! The chickadee is found in many habitats, preferring those with trees or woody shrubs, from forests to residential neighborhoods and parks, and sometimes weedy fields and cattail marshes. They are acrobatic and associate in flocks—the sudden activity when a flock arrives is distinctive. They often fly across roads and open areas one at a time with a bouncy flight.

"That sounds like a nice collection of mementoes, Baby!"
Daisy, Daisy
The name "daisy" is considered a corruption of "day's eye", because the whole head closes at night and opens in the morning. Chaucer called it "eye of the day". In mediaeval times, Bellis perennis or the English Daisy was commonly known as "Mary's Rose".

@ Butterflies in Fog
"This is how trends are set, Angel. 'In the 1980s, pastel colours were introduced in human male fashion. In particular, the television police series Miami Vice popularised this trend as its lead characters Crockett and Tubbs exclusively wore pastel shirts and suits in seasons 1 and 2, setting a fashion that stood popular years after the show ended'."
"That's going back a bit now, Baby!"

@ Amazing Hydrangea
"I'm going to buy that framed sepia print of Grandpa's Garage on Route 66, Ted," said Baby. "It'll go nicely with my souvenir from the Italian Murano glass outlet and my model of Tower Bridge when we went to London."
"That sounds like a nice collection of mementoes, Baby!"
Amazing Hydrangea
The hydrangea is rightly a very popular garden shrub, coming in a variety of gorgeous colours. Did you know that some hydrangeas have the ability to change the colour of their flowers? This colour change is due to the soil pH which affects aluminium availability. Those with blue or pink flowers tend to be blue in acid soil conditions (high available aluminium levels), mauve in acid to neutral soil conditions, and pink in alkaline conditions. White flowers, and also green-flowered cultivars, remain white or green regardless of soil pH. Try to use rainwater to water hydrangeas, since mains hard water can affect the flower colour, turning blue flowers mauve or pink.

@ Pastel Fractal
As Baby's tour of "World of Pastel " comes to an end, he receives a seasonally appropriate gift!
Isn't Fall Just Peachy
For many pets, fall is their favorite season. And who can blame them? Everything around them is shrouded in such lovely colors, like these flowers, for example, in warm soft peachy hues. No doubt, Fall is definitely just 'peachy.'
Pastel Fractal
A fractal is a geometric shape that is self-similar through infinite iterations in a recursive pattern and through infinite detail. It couldn't be simpler! Our example here might be part of a rather splendid ceiling or perhaps an ornate lampshade!
Baby has completed him tour of "World of Pastel "! Please select another pet as visitor, so it can also tour an art gallery!
