Flower Power: Decorating with Florals

The right upholstery fabric allows you to bring a whole lot of yourself into the décor of your home. If you choose to go a patterned route, something elegant and floral-based is truly timeless and unique. In addition to upholstery fabric for your furniture, consider these other floral decorating ideas to truly bring it all together.

  • Floral murals can be very eye-catching. Instead of framed artwork, consider fully committing to the concept with wall art. If you’re not artistically inclined (or don’t have a friend with some painting skills), you can easily get a pre-made wall decal to complete the project.
  • Use floral upholstery fabric to create a beautiful backdrop for a grid of photos. This can be a fun DIY project for a weekend. Simply stretch the fabric over a picture frame, and then arrange your photographs on the fabric. You can affix them easily with some shellac or glue.
  • Feel free to get three-dimensional! Enhance an otherwise plain tablecloth by hot-gluing some silk flowers along the sides. This is an unexpected touch that is truly eye-catching.
  • Get crafty with your headboard. Part furniture, part work of art – stencil some floral shapes onto the wood. It’s a simple and elegant way to tie everything together.
