Make Your Space Bloom: Tips for Decorating with Florals

Leave a reply

After a cold winter season, we are so ready to welcome the warmer days of spring (anyone else?) and are continually inspired by the statement florals making a big impact in interior design trends!  Adding floral prints to your walls, couches, rugs, or anywhere else in your space is a perfect way to refresh your interiors, especially with spring on the horizon.  Florals can bring some life and natural beauty into your design (without worrying about watering it!) and we are excited to share a few tips for incorporating some blooms in your space!

Find Your Style

Whether you prefer modern & contemporary or classic & traditional interiors, florals can work with any design style!  Because floral prints can be as unique as flowers themselves—from delicate blooms to abstract petals—incorporating blossoming imagery doesn’t always mean your space will be too feminine or traditional.  Modern florals can bring a bold energy to your design, and classic patterns can add the perfect vintage touch to a space.  No matter your style, floral images can add a cheerful note and wake up a relaxed space.

Mix & Match

Floral imagery is a great way to add splashes of color to your space, in small or large doses.  From pillows and rugs to small accessories, there are many ways to mix and match floral prints.  If you have one floral focal point, such as a sofa or statement wall, try offsetting it with clean lines, modern elements, and a neutral color palette for a chic and eclectic space.  And pairing prints and patterns can add even more playful notes to a design, but unifying color palette is key to making sure your vibrant space stays cohesive.

A Wall of Flowers

Framing some floral artwork is a great way to freshen up your space, especially if you want to ease into the floral decor.  For those who want to go bold, a luscious wallcovering or wallpaper can create an elegant statement, whether you do a whole room or just cover one wall.

However you choose to incorporate florals into your design, they are sure to bring the warmth and cheer of spring to any room!

Decorating with Landscapes

Do you want to have a beautiful view in your space but don’t have a picturesque scene outside your window? Landscape artwork can be the perfect addition to the design of any space to bring the serenity of the outdoors in. From coastal to desert to forest landscapes, it is easy to add the right art piece to your wall in many different artistic styles!

Hanging landscape paintings can create a “window with a view” for your interior, no matter where you live.  Beachy landscapes can add “ocean views” to complete a coastal-inspired space, and imagery of a beautiful green pasture can bring countryside living to urban spaces.

Landscape photography is also a great way to add a touch of nature to your interiors and liven up your walls.  Photographs in black and white can give your space a chic, classic touch and are also great for adding landscapes to a monochromatic look. We love how landscape imagery can bring calming energy and natural inspiration to your space and transport you to a far-away destination!

From transitional landscapes to abstract or representational, you are sure to find the best piece to fit your design style!

Finding The Best Pieces For Your Living Room

Designing a stylish and functional living room can create the perfect gathering space!  Whether you are entertaining guests or relaxing with family, finding the right décor can help set the tone for your room.  We are excited to share some tips on finding the best pieces for creating an inviting living room.

Furniture is arguably the most important piece of a living room, so finding wall décor that complements your couches and comfy chairs is important.  Hanging wall art in the same color scheme as your furniture will keep your space cohesive, whether it’s bright hues or warm neutrals.  If your furniture has contemporary curves, try hanging a piece with rounded details to help soften the space.  Boldly patterned wall art will pair well with printed pillows, rugs, and detailed fabrics in your living space.

A mantel can be the focal point of a living room so adding eye-catching decor will really help make it the center of the room.  You can hang and center wall art above your mantel to draw the eye upward and fill more vertical space.  You can also add art to your mantle, no hammer necessary, by propping it against the wall and layering it with other décor pieces to add more character.  Depending on your wall space, you can also hang art on either side of the fireplace to help frame it.

If you are looking to fill some large wall space, adding multiple pieces can help break up an empty wall.  Adding a diptych or gallery wall are great options for adding multiple images to one wall, or don’t be afraid to go bold by hanging one large piece to really make a statement!

No matter your style, finding the right art and décor will bring your design together.  Add personal touches and find pieces that reflect you to make your living room a cozy and welcoming space!
