It's summer and everything's coming up roses (and peonies and sweetpeas). Yes, flowers are all the rage right now - and we love it!

We also love the fact that accessing the floral trend is as easy as picking a bouquet of wildflowers. Flowers are a simple and inexpensive way to add colour and cheer to your life and bring nature into your home.

Living with flowers provides a boost of energy, happiness and enthusiasm and chases away the blues.

Fresh flowers instantly brighten up any room. Transform and uplift a neutral table setting by mixing wild flowers and foliage with bought varieties adding shape and texture to your bouquet.
Via Country Living
Experiment with different surfaces and vessels for flowers. For example, instead of hiding long elegant stalks in vases, display them in vintage bottles on the floor.
Via Country Living
Layer pattern and texture in a room by placing a wildly enchanting arrangement against floral wallpaper. Choose flowers that contrast with the surroundings in similar tones to heighten impact.
From Designers Guild
There's an abundance of floral prints at flea markets and charity shops, lending a soft vintage feeling to any setting.

Make flowers a focal point in your home and place them where you will see and enjoy them the most. Combine your bouquet with cherished objects, creating a unique still life that will change with every new arrangement you make.

If splurging on freshly cut flowers isn't for you, put together an arrangement of floral still lifes using dried or silk flowers that will bring you joy everyday.
Embrace the floral trend. Bring on summer!

I love that flowers can bring so much to a room: colour, scent, texture and even height in some cases! Great post!
