I'm always surprised by the versatility of botanical prints even though I've tried to write them off as too country, too old-fashioned, or too refined. However, like many nature-inspired or nature-made decor items, botanicals can suit a variety of styles spanning from whimsical, rustic, classic,glam, and maybe even a touch funky.
How do you like your botanicals?

I quite like the third option because I could potentially do something like that myself. I've taken up wood burning, so I could burn some intricate leaf designs into circular cross sections of wood. Should be fun to try and perfect for the mountain cabin. :)

I like #3 too! I also like the last one for unexpected (lack of) color... it has an organic feel without being too literal.
Does anyone use those blue sunlight images as decor? I can't remember what it was called, but as a kid we would put leaves on special paper in the sunlight, and then a shadow of the leaves would end up preserved on the paper.
