This week’s promise of showers has me hopeful for another round of flowers on our hillsides. While we wait to see what Mother Nature offers up next, there are plenty of ways to bring blooms indoors. Floral decor for spring may not be new, but lately I’ve seen so much delightful inspiration that my cup — or perhaps my flower vase — runneth over.

Guaranteeing sweet dreams, Architectural Digest shares ideas for floral bedding — incorporating blossoms into your bedroom no matter what your design aesthetic. From traditionalist to coastal, cottagecore to heirloom, there’s something for every style.

Next, AD rounds up floral decor ideas for less than $300 each, including a tulip-studded candelabra from Lulu and Georgia, an $18 Anthropologie trinket dish, and these cheerful pieces from West Elm and Le Creuset:

In colors this fun, they’re sure to brighten your mood — no matter how your garden is growing.

Speaking of gardens, this week’s Indy is our Spring Home & Garden issue. Inside: A look at a new local decor hotspot, buzz about backyard bees, a stunning home profile by our editor Leslie Dinaberg, and more. Plus, a comprehensive guide to local pros — from roofers to interior designers to landscape experts — it’s packed with home-and-garden goodness.

THIS WEEK’S COVER HOME:

Continuing the theme of bringing the outdoors in, check out the gorgeous deck on this beautiful duplex located at 518 East Islay Street. One of my favorite parts of town — situated between the Upper East and Lower Riviera — offers walkability to downtown and sits high enough to enjoy a view. This turnkey property has been extensively remodeled and blends crisp contemporary architecture with meticulously crafted warm, inviting interiors. With two bedrooms and two baths in each unit, this home allows options for rental income, extended family living, or other lifestyle options. Offered by Casey Turpin at $2,950,000.
