Florals Always Have a Place in Home Decor

Many of us love the natural look of florals in our home décor. Although the inclusion of flowers and leaves can add a feminine touch to your home, there are also ways to use floral accents without overpowering a room. From fabric to floors, the options for decorating with florals are endless. Let’s take a look at some of the many places these motifs of nature can enliven your home.

Fabrics
The choices for floral fabrics are endless. A trend at the moment is a focus on leaves, from flowing tropical looks to more minimalist skeleton leaf designs. Flowers can be found on all types of surfaces, such as:

• In floor rugs, from woven patterns to traditional Oriental designs
• Throw pillows allow a spot of floral pattern without being overwhelming
• Curtains with flowers add a cheerful touch to rooms
• Upholstery on small furniture items melds well with other textures

Walls
Having an accent wall that features flowers and leaves is a great approach to incorporating natural elements in your home and will provide a focal point for any room. There are many ways to incorporate the pattern using wallpaper, stencils, painting, or decals. Try to keep the pattern on a smaller scale and in a neutral color to avoid overwhelming the rest of your décor.

Floral features on the fixtures of your home are a more subtle way of incorporating nature into your interior design. Consider adding these touches:
• Floral balustrades on your staircase that have an iron flower-and-leaf motif
• Wall sconces in leaf shapes add a flowy feel to your light fixtures
• A three-panel corner screen can provide a pretty backdrop

Floral patterns have a place in any home décor, regardless of the season. Even in the fall and winter, adding a touch of nature to your decor can brighten any room. Try out some of these ideas to bring nature indoors.
