Pastel bathrooms have made a huge contribution to today’s shabby chic trend, which looks at recycling antique and vintage furniture to create fun and charming rooms. Roll top baths, exposed pipes and ornate furniture alongside any pastel tones will help to achieve the look, as will using feminine and floral shades like pink, yellow, and purple.
