From Garden to Desk: How to Infuse The Vintage Floral Aesthetic into Your Everyday Life

There’s something magical about vintage florals. They carry the charm of a bygone era, the softness of nature’s palette, and the warmth of memories — even if we never lived them ourselves. It's no wonder we see the vintage floral aesthetic maintaining its popularity over the years. 

How do you infuse the vintage floral aesthetic in decor and everyday living? 

For women who appreciate beauty in the details, bringing these patterns into daily life is more than décor; it’s a way to create moments of visual joy. Let's just plainly say it: we love pretty things, and the vintage floral aesthetic is exactly this! 

This is why we launched the Vintage Summer Floral Collection. Here are some ways to infuse your everyday life with a splash of vintage florals:

1. Start Your Morning with a Bloom

Your day begins before you even leave the house — so why not make it beautiful?

Have a coffee ritual? Do it with a bit of elegance: a floral coaster is just the perfect added touch.

Jot dot a few thoughts, intentions or plans for the day in a daily journal? Do it in a pretty one with a vibrant floral design.

Start with a morning walk? Whether around the neighbourhood or on a treadmill, his floral water bottle is perfect.  

2. Bring the Garden to Your Workspace

Whether you work from home or in an office, your desk can be a sanctuary. A vintage floral notebook can inspire creativity, while a matching pen or bookmark adds a touch of cohesion. Even a single floral print framed on your desk can shift the mood from “work” to “work with joy.”

Tip: Pair your tech with our Vintage Summer Floral Desk Mat. 

3. Create Seasonal Rituals

Vintage florals aren’t just for spring. Rotate your pieces with the seasons — soft pastels for summer, deeper jewel tones for autumn. This keeps your space feeling fresh and intentional, and it gives you something to look forward to each season.

Tip: Use your floral desk mat as a seasonal anchor — swap out the flowers in your workspace to match its design.

4. Make It Personal

The beauty of vintage florals is that they can be deeply personal. Choose patterns that remind you of your grandmother’s garden, a favourite summer dress, or a trip you once took. These connections turn everyday objects into keepsakes.
