Interiors: Granny Chic Florals





I'm conjuring up my inner grandma today with these lovely floral bedrooms.  Nothing says "granny chic" like floral wallpaper.

images: 1 / 2 / 3 / 4
images 1 and 3 were found on Your Granny Was Chic, one of my very favorite tumblr pages and also the *inspiration* for the title of this post.

    Usually I'm all about modern strong colors and lines, but there has always been something so attractive about girly girly flowers!

    Granny Chic! Haha! I love it! I have those kitschy, retro, still-life paintings in my kitchen that are sooo like what my grandma's decor was centered around. Funny how we go back to those motifs... Good post, girl!

    not sure i can wrap my self around these wallpapers, but you never know. i like grandma underwear, so this might be next. slight exaggeration on the panty thing...but only slight! :)

    ohhh i love granny chic =]
    if i could have a bedroom like that i would LOVE IT. but my style is such a strange mash-up of bohemian and colorful and soft and girly and boyish and bold that i never know how to decorate!
