REAL HOMES | Inspiration using Flora’s Tale

As we cosy up and reminisce about the warmth of summer, The Cocoon Bloom trend invites us to bring those sunny memories indoors with beautiful floral inspired hues.

It’s the perfect way to transition into the cooler months ahead while creating a snug nook in our homes.

Our dusky pink shade, Flora’s Tale, perfectly embodies this trend.

Its warm undertones and earthy feel blend wonderfully with the rich colours of autumn, all while reminding us of summer’s lingering beauty.

So, let’s look at some real homes showcasing Flora’s Tale and see how The Cocoon Bloom trend can come to life in your space!

 

Colour drenched bedroom

Frances Simmons (@100yearsinthemaking) embodies the trend beautifully in her guest bedroom by saturating walls, ceiling and woodwork with Flora’s Tale in Claypaint.

Accessorising with wood furniture, fresh flowers and floral prints, Frances has managed to create a calming sanctuary that invites you in and surrounds you in warmth.

Painted Furniture

Whilst The Cocoon Bloom trend invites us to select a single floral shade as a focal point, it allows us to play with a tonal palette of similar colours to create depth and interest.

Rosie Sawyer (@at_home_in_the_hayward) demonstrates this perfectly by opting for Rosie Posie in Eco Chic on her little ones’ wardrobe.

This subtle contrast against the vintage pink panelling shows how layered hues of similar colours add a sophisticated touch.

Finishing off the look with beautiful floral wallpaper, Rosie has managed to create a calm and nurturing space for her daughter Emilia to enjoy for years to come.

Painted Panelling

Panelling is an easy way to add interest to a room especially when painted in our stunning Flora’s Tale.

Taking the panelling up to picture rail height, Emma Earley (@pagesofemma) cleverly creates a colour focal point that draws the eye upwards creating the illusion of a bigger room.

Floral wallpaper adorns the top part of the wall with fresh flowers and vintage style floral paintings thoughtfully arranged around the space.

Paired with rustic wood furniture and soft, layered linens, this inviting retreat beckons you in, wrapping you in a soothing embrace.

Colour drenched living room

Using Flora’s Tale to drench your living room pink may seem a bit daunting at first, but Gemma Cruickshank (@oldschoolreno) proves that actually there is nothing to be worried about!

Diving right in and drenching walls, ceiling and cabinetry in the same colour, Gemma has managed to create a cosy area that is zoned off but it’s still cohesive to the rest of her home.

Sharing her love for Flora’s Tale, she tells us ‘ It changes so much throughout the day and it goes from bright and bouncy in the mornings to deep and comforting in the evenings – like a big hug…it’s just magic!’
