Design Themes: Flower Power
heavenly hideaway | floral sophistication | patterned elegance

Perhaps you avoid using florals because you worry that they'll look too frilly or feminine, but that's no reason to shy away from a botanical theme. Rather than a delicate floral, why not select a boldly patterned print in subtle tones? You can use solid furniture to balance the visual weight of the pattern. Here, neutral pieces like a veneered sideboard, classic shield-back chair, and brass candlesticks give the room a traditional look, and a large vase of greenery provides the finishing touch, echoing the design of the wallpaper.

We've listed a few products below that can help you get this look...
