Decor: Is floral the new black?

March 24, 2009

It seems like everywhere I look lately, I’ve been seeing a lot of floral prints. Not just the geometric or retro kind, but the big cabbage-rose kind, the more traditional kind. I’m not sure if it has something to do with the economy, with people choosing more traditional looks, or if it’s just another example of “what goes around comes back around”.

So what do you think? Do you love them or hate them?

I do love that last pillow. It’s so retro pretty. I love the colors.

I have a love/hate relationship with floral. I can appreciate in small doses, but feel overwhelmed when an entire room is floral. Really like the top right image.

I agree with Anne too, I love it in small doses :)
