Spring DIY – Flower Wall Decor

Happy Friday! Here’s a simple apartment DIY that’s perfect for giving your space a springtime update.

Inspiration for my take on this diy, floral wall decor came from this Pinterest post:

And a dank sale on fake flowers at Micheal’s 😉


Supplies you’ll need:

  • Fake flowers
  • Wire cutters
  • Adhesive (I used plain, old masking tape to prevent damaging the walls in my apartment)
  • String lights to add some extra fun

 

The process is really simple, so I would begin by deciding how you want the flowers to be arranged on your wall. Do you want them in straight, parallel lines like the Pinterest example? I decided that was a little much for what I wanted in my space, which led me to using the flowers as a border for this random accent wall in my apartment.

Once you’ve got an idea of a layout grab your wire cutters and go to work on the bouquets.

I varied the length of each flower as I cut it away from it’s bouquet, because as you can see from the finished product I’m a little more haphazard and a little less of a perfectionist with my crafts.

Next, use the adhesive of your choice to stick each individual flower to the wall. Continue until you’ve completed your desired layout.

Depending on the size of each flower, I taped some of them together in two’s or three’s and others as individuals.

 

 

 

 

 

 

And there you have it! An easy way to brighten up any space for spring and easy to take down once you get bored with it. Add a string of white lights (these I had left over from Valentine’s Day) for an extra touch of fun.

Don’t mind me, just being a weirdo while also showing off my near-perfect eyeliner for the day.
