This lovely assemblage of photos I found on Pinterest curated by Marie Francesca inspired me to share some equally delightful Asian-inspired postcard images. Lately I've been loving all of the lovely pastel shades I've been seeing everywhere, bakery inspired colors, subtle almond, creamy vanilla, pale pistachio, petal pink, robin's egg blue, celadon green, all reminders that though we have just begun winter, dreams of spring are on the horizon.
Awake, thou wintry earth -
Fling off thy sadness!
Fair vernal flowers, laugh forth
Your ancient gladness!
~Thomas Blackburn, "An Easter Hymn"
I'm off to bed, and wishing you sweet dreams of Spring...
Lovely pastel images. Sweet post.
