secret of domestic bliss #47... decorating with flowers

I don't know if many of you will remember this but remember the days when Laura Ashley reigned queen. I can remember as a young girl my mother decked out my bedroom with head to toe floral motifs.    I quickly found myself loathing floral decor...until recently. Is it just me or is the flower making a comeback? Lately I have been seeing beautiful floral motifs everywhere and layered up. Maybe its just that Spring is on its way and flowers are in full bloom! Either way, I am loving the ways of incorporating florals into decor. (like this room with blooms)Whether it be through art, wallpaper, fabrics, linens, or even just a simple bouquet...I am so ready for spring to be in full bloom!


If you have ever checked out Tricia Guild's work, then you will see what I mean, this woman is all about decorating with flowers. Her stuff is spot on!

I love having flowers in my bedroom, I also purchased different flower drawer knobs from anthropologie and used them for my desk in my room.

I had a complete floral Laura Ashley room too-wallpaper, comforter, etc... Then, I went to Shabby Chic and had a floral comforter, but with more whites...and then I never wanted to look a floral fabric ever again! Now, I am coming around a bit :)

No your right flowers are everywhere. They are (I think) one of the best ways to add colour to a room. I have dark flooring, dark walls and placing two vases with brightly colured flowers really gives the room character!

I love most florals. I have upcycled a Laura Ashley sheet for several items I've made. I think the flower is definitely making a comeback.
