Being May, I find myself saying the well known adage “April showers bring May flowers,” and that is has! Fresh flowers are in bloom all around us here in Alabama and stores are full of real and faux flowers, all bringing joy to this lovely time of year. It’s no surprise that my excitement to incorporate flowers into decor has been piqued!
I have joined up with several blogger friends to share with you all charming ways to decorate with flowers in the spring and summer months.
A couple of weeks ago, I shared here why having a potter’s bench is awesome! They are functional when planting your flowers and plants, but they’re also visually appealing in any garden or outdoor area. Who doesn’t love to see stacked pots and colorful flowers decorating these time-worn and tattered benches? I love how it all looks.
For this Spring and Summer, I chose a mix of both tall and delicate white flowers, draping greens, and a splash of pink daises to use on this potter’s bench. I also used various pots and planters to put them in, incorporating terra cotta pots and multi-colored painted glass containers. The use of flowers on this outdoor potter’s bench makes me smile every time I see it.
Leslie shared How To Make Paper Flowers. Aren’t these just gorgeous? She provides all the details on how you can create these delicate beauties. I especially love the creative ways she has used them to decorate in her own home. You’ve got to check them all out!
I’m so excited because Janine also shared a guide on How to Make Crepe Paper Flowers. These paper flowers are just a few supplies and steps away from adding beauty to your home. She has some helpful photos to walk you through these steps and the end result is definitely vase worthy.
Ashley shared a Grocery Store Flower Arrangement DIY and who doesn’t love an easy and budget friendly DIY?! Especially one with flowers! Her tips and tricks for taking grocery store flowers and turning them into something lovely are invaluable. I know what I’ll be grabbing during my next grocery shop!
Kristi walked through fabulous ways to incorporate Gardening and Outdoor Entertaining at home. She shared many tips but my favorite is her emphasis on adding container gardens to your porch and how they truly make it warm and inviting. Just check out how she models this on her own porch!
Krista shared a Series of Four Watercolour Floral Art {free printables} that are spring/summer decor must haves for any style home. She suggests framing this flower artwork individually or as a collection for free and simple wall decor. Yes, please! I’ll take free and lovely flowers to brighten my home!
