Roundup: Poppies


Poppies are beautiful. They are the official flower of our fair state, and we wouldn't be opposed to the idea of making them the official flower of our home. The rich orange-red color and beautiful shape has inspired artists for thousands of years, and it's inspired us to roundup some our favorite poppy decor items.

 
 

1 Hable Construction offers these bold wool felt applique pillows with abstract poppy images in many colors---most appealingly in the recognizable orange-red.

2 Always with the wide selection of gorgeous, ornamental dinnerware and porcelain table settings, it's only natural that Anthropologie has a set with poppies.

3 Karen Faulkner creates these simple, bold watercolor paintings of flowers. The poppy is a beautiful image for just $15 at her Etsy shop.

4 Wall vinyl is a fantastic, impermanent way to add interest to a wall that can't be painted, or that could simply use a punch of color. These poppies are a beautiful example of some of the more serene options available.

5 Lumens offers this graphic poppy rug that we think would add a great pop of color to a room that is done in whites or neutrals. Not overly expensive, we love this design.

I have poppy accents in my kitchen. I like them, so I have to keep myself from over-doing it. Too much can look tacky real fast.

$150 for that poppy pillow; I like it, but I don't like it THAT much!
