If This Bloom Were a Room
Here today, gone tomorr ... Nope. Décor inspired by spring blossoms lets you enjoy their beauty long after the last petal has dropped
Houzz Contributor. I am a former magazine editor specializing in travel and design. I just completed my first remodel, turning my crumbling 1941 kitchen into a beauty of grays, whites and natural wood. If I could, I'd sleep on the countertop. That's how much I love it.

Don't be afraid of the really bright stuff. Magenta, soft pink and even red are cheerful and bold together — even in a room.

The pattern on this bedspread captures some of the beautiful chaos of a tree in full bloom. It's about texture as much as color.
