  • Spring: Brighten Your Home with Floral Wallpaper

    Walls covered in lush greenery and flowers make us feel closer to spring no matter the date or the weather. Wallpaper continues to evolve for the modern home with designs that work for every décor from traditional to contemporary.

    The latest patterns update the classic floral wallpaper you remember from Grandma’s house by using unexpected colors and exaggerated size. Current trends vary wildly, from vibrant jewel tones to organic natural neutrals, to ultra-modern all black, inspiring creativity with every bloom. Botanical and tropical prints, such as stylized palm fronds and vines, are also growing in popularity. Anything nature-inspired, including plants, birds, and butterflies, is a fresh and imaginative way to brighten your home for any season.

Wallpaper as a background for a bookcase or display space or an accent over the fireplace is an interesting idea. Or, try just one wall of wallpaper to create a focal point in a favorite room.
