JAN 06|5 min read

Charm, impact and pops of personality– the benefits of layering floral prints are many.

Whether you go all in or just add a few accents, florals have the capacity to turn your look around.

To make the most of the magic of prints, we’ve put together some handy tips on how you can bring this gorgeous trend into your bedroom. You could be print-shy or print-forward, it doesn’t matter – choose as little or as much as you want, and give your space a wonderful boost!

Start with something minimal

Start nice and easy with your favourite quilt like this one to anchor your space – it’s something we all have in our linen closets, and is versatile and full of style pay-off. Treat this as a base for your styling. A minimal or block colour like this provides a beautiful canvas to layer your prints on top of and lets you have as many layering options as you want.

Pop a printed sheet on

Dip your toes into the world of prints with this simple trick – layer printed sheets onto your plains. Make this even more fun by choosing from our wide palette of new season colours, bringing interest and character in a single sweep (or fitted sheet!).

The real heroes ─ cushions and throws

For the next step, add printed cushions for interest– choose floral prints to stay true to this trend, playing with the colours that match and complement your space.

For throws, a good rule to follow is to pull out a colour tone from within your printed pieces. Layering a throw in this colour will ground your look and make your space warm and welcoming.

Don't forget your walls

Decorating your wall with prints will add depth to your space. Lead the eyes with a well-chosen selection of art prints and you will have a well-rounded space with lots of interest.

Always in your corner

Take the trend to other areas of your home too. A good place to start is to choose a corner to focus on. Start with an armchair, then layer with a cosy cushion or two, rounding it off with a snuggly throw for good measure. All you need now is a coffee, a book and a view to the outside world.

Finishing touches

To tie everything up in a bow, add a few faux florals to the mix. They add a special something – joy, colour, life – and the best part is, they need little or no maintenance. Win, win!
