It’s officially that time of year again—the weather is getting warmer, the days are getting longer and those of us who still have yet to take down our Christmas trees are in the midst of a rude-but-necessary awakening. While homebody season may be drawing to a close, that doesn’t mean at-home cooking needs to be left behind, as well. Whether you’re cooking for one or hosting, there is no better way to commemorate the arrival of spring than trickling some fittingly-colored kitchenware into your rotation.
Think of it this way: Colorful kitchenware is to cooking what cute workout sets are to your gym motivation—not only do the two simply go hand-in-hand (it’s the law of the universe), but it also allows you to romanticize aspects of your daily life that can otherwise be disregarded as mundane. If you’re all about enjoying the little things, Nordstrom’s got you covered with its ongoing Winter Sale, in which items across all fashion and lifestyle categories are up to 60 percent off through February 27.
With tastes ranging from mid-century minimalism to slow-crafted, modern porcelain ware, Nordstrom’s home sale section has a little something in store for everybody. From periwinkle to baby blue, these dreamy pastels will resurrect your kitchen just in time for the renewal and rejuvenation this spring will hopefully bestow upon us. Don’t get us wrong—there’s no need to nix any and all pre-existing neutral-toned items in your cabinets; if anything, pastels work well with neutral colors, jointly creating sophisticated, balanced energy. If you’re looking for simple ways to spruce up your kitchen, look no further. Shop six of our favorite pastel kitchenware items on sale at Nordstrom below.
