Go Big or Go Home

Maximalism is all about making a statement, and there’s no better way to do that than with floral wallpaper. Whether you’re thinking huge, oversized blooms that make you feel like you’re living in a garden, or something a little more delicate and whimsical, wallpaper is the perfect way to bring the outdoors in.

Tip: Not ready to commit to floral wallpaper on every wall? No problem, create an accent wall and let the florals work their magic in one place. Bonus points if you pair it with some playful furniture and bold accessories. Trust us, this combo is chef’s kiss.

The More, The Merrier

If you’re not about covering every inch of your walls in florals, no worries. Floral throw pillows are your new best friend. Throw a few (or, okay, a bunch) of floral pillows onto your couch or bed and let the pattern play begin. The beauty of floral pillows is that they’re like a wardrobe for your furniture: you can switch them out whenever you’re feeling like a little change-up.

Tip: Mix different floral prints! Go for bold, oversized florals, then throw in some small, delicate blooms for contrast. There are no rules here. Our only tip is to make sure the colors work together.

Sweet Dreams

There’s no better place for florals than your bed (believe us). A floral duvet or quilt can transform your entire bedroom into a dreamy, inviting space. Pair it with some solid-colored sheets to balance things out, or go full on maximalist with a set of floral ones. Either way, your cozy oasis awaits. Plus, it’s a way to sneak in some color without committing to a full-on floral explosion everywhere else.

Tip: Pick bedding that introduces new colors into the room. Love a neutral, calm palette? Add florals in shades of blush or mustard for a soft pop. Want more drama? Try deep, rich hues like emerald green or navy blue.

Art That Blooms

If wallpaper and throw pillows feel a little too much, art is a more subtle way to get your floral fix. A floral print or two on the walls will give your space a touch of class, with just the right amount of personality.

Tip: Think big, oversized floral art for maximum impact. Pair it with smaller, delicate prints to create a balanced, collected look. Your walls deserve to be just as stylish as the rest of your space, right?

The Magic of Maximalism

Ready to take your floral game to the next level? Go ahead and layer florals like a pro. Throw pillows? Check. Bedding? You bet. Floral prints? Absolutely. But remember, maximalism is all about balance—mix big prints with small ones and make sure the colors don’t clash. This is your chance to get creative, mix up textures, and let florals do the heavy lifting in your space.

Tip: If you’re unsure where to start, go slow. Mix florals in a single space, like your living room or bedroom, and see how you feel. Once you get the hang of it, you’ll be layering florals like a seasoned pro.
