With more hours to spare over the past few months, lots of us have been spending more time on Instagram.

And, while we’ve been seeing out the days at home, the platform has provided us with plenty of interior inspiration.

One key style that has cropped up recently is a new flower trend that sees fresh blooms swapped for dried alternatives.

Along with rattan furniture and terrazzo accessories, dried flowers are a huge interior trend this year.

They’re also a sustainable and purse-friendly alternative to fresh flowers – so we can see why they’re growing in popularity.

Not to mention, they require zero maintenance (unlike their living counterparts). There are just two main rules to follow –  don’t get them wet and keep them out of direct sunlight.

We’ve rounded up some of the best places to get your hands on them…

The Happy Blossoms

If you like your flowers to make a statement, this brand is likely to have something that will get your attention.

The Dorset-based company have two different types to choose from – the ‘baked bunches’ which combine different types of flowers and the ‘dried flower stems and grasses.’

The adorable bouquets each have a sweet theme based on their colour, from vibrant ‘sherbet macaron’ to more muted ‘pink wafer’.

Prices start from £15 for smaller bunches and go up to £32 for more complex arrangements.

Mud Urban Flowers

This brand starting designing bouquets back in 2018 but saw a surge in demand for dried flowers during the pandemic, as fresh flowers were unavailable.

Mud Urban Flowers offers a whole host of dried Bunny Tales – which are popular on Instagram – in different colours, ranging from lilac to white.

According to the website, the brand likes to keep things as natural as possible.

It says on its blog: ‘The flowers are harvested using traditional techniques and preserved using state-of-the-art facilities powered by renewable energy sources.

‘Being nature lovers, we are passionate about the environment so we really strive to ensure that we are as sustainable as possible.’

Prices start from £20.

For those willing to spend a little more on an impressive-looking arrangement, Wallflower London offers some stylish bunches which would make great centrepieces.

Its collection of Forever Flowers – which do exactly what their name suggests (last forever) – has something for all colour palettes.

Most bunches cost £45.

Hedges + Flowers

This brand – which specialises in flowers for weddings – offers a small but mighty collection of dried flowers on its online shop, including dried daisies, dried wheat bunches and dried straw tails.

They also have letterbox flowers – which will soon be available in different colours – as well as bespoke bunches.

Prices range from £20-£40.

Of course, Etsy is on top of interior trends.

The platform is home to a plethora of independent brands selling glorious dried flowers.
