I’m glad that you enjoyed my flower power post from earlier today. Seeing beautiful floral arrangements never ceases to put a smile on my face. Let’s look at some rooms with a floral theme to keep the beauty flowing, shall we? I’m all about the eye candy today, I find that bright colors and bold patterns are preparing me for Spring and helping to clear away those cloudy skies outside.

Whether you choose just a touch, through a pillow or a painting, or bold blooms spread over an entire wall, florals can be the perfect touch to any home no matter what style – modern, minimalist, romantic, eclectic. Aren’t these spaces so alluring?

I love them all! I adore florals, whether in clothing or interiors, especially when you mix florals with varying prints and patterns. They make me giddy like a school girl! Thank you for this post, my dear.

Holly, it was with utter delight that I read your flower post essay:) – I am a fanatic for fresh flowers! Today my reporter friend was in a panic for a segment for TV so I was madly shopping for flowers when I peeked at your post – serendipitous moment I say! It totally inspired me but sent me into tizzy trying desperately in the mid of winter to find lovely specimens in my eensy weensy town with 15 mins to camera! Tulips it was, with roadside branches. But then once again you inspired me, to post on my blog, about my favourite blogs and also share this flower filled day! Leslie’s blog is also featured so take a peek if you have a moment in between your teaching duties! Thank you for making my day!

I love the plates in the picture by Shannon Fricke! Anthropologie also has some really great plates right now with birds and flowers on them. I bought one myself for my living room.

Hi Holly,
Thank you so much for all this inspiration- it will definitely be influential in my next sewing project, cushions for spring!! I adore the lamp in Tracy Lorna Nors image, do you know where I could get one similar?
Thank you

I bought the Linda Barker Bloom Bedding after seeing it on your blog about 6 months ago. I love the duvet cover and pillow shams, and they were a good price, too, bu they are not printed with solid pink as the images on the site would suggest. They are filled in with a grainy, criss-cross pattern which was a bit disappointing…but anyways… I can’t wait for the springtime and I love your collections of blooms, Holly!
Thanks,
Justina
