These gorgeous and affordable cherry blossom and peony flowers might be my favorite Amazon purchase ever!
Decorate For Spring with a few fun things from Amazon ~ here's what I'm loving right now!
It's so tempting when you walk through Hobby Lobby or Home Goods this time of year to snag allllll the Spring things (goodness the happy Easter bunnies and cute carrot garlands are fun, aren't they?), but sometimes they're not quite what you really might want in your space when you bring them home. The last few years I've decorated with more and more simple classic Spring flowers, a pretty candle and a great book, and I love the way our space cozies right up without purchasing seasonal decor that won't last more than a week.
So before you head to Hobby Lobby or Michael's and spend $100 on Easter decor… consider trying these:
As someone who's kind of minimalist, I feel absolutely silly buying books on minimalism to decorate my home that I don't totally need, but goodness, the books are beautiful and they're the perfect way to fluff a basic coffee table or bookshelf beautifully.
Amazon Best Coffee Table Books
Tip: Take the paper jackets off your books when staging in your home. The top book is Home Body by Joanna Gaines and looks NOTHING like the paper cover but sits up beautifully!
- Welcome Home (this one is the smallest of the books, but it's one of my all time favorite books about your home)!
- Home Body by Joanna Gaines
- Minimalista (this one is just beautiful to look through!)
- Made for Living
- Down to Earth
- Live Beautiful
The bonus? The books are so good when you actually open them up and peruse the pages too. Win-win. 🙂
Next try out these tulips and a beautiful candle
I got these on Amazon this Spring and love them almost as much as my cherry blossoms and peonies (keep reading….)
I still absolutely also LOVE my pink cherry blossoms – but I also have a few other cute fake flower arrangements around the house that I wanted to recommend! Keep in mind that I love these because they're very real looking – but you can also get less pricey options at Hobby Lobby or other stores as well.
Here are my 3 most recent Amazon Flower purchases – I have them displayed on my console, my dining room table and my breakfast table and make it just feel so much happier in here!
White Cherry Blossoms 4-Stems (These are SUPER tall – but you can bend the stems to fit any size jar)
Now get a BIG jar…
The only other thing you need is a nice BIG jar – I love this Anchor Hocking 2 Gallon Jar – you can get it from around $20 at World Market (free shipping at $49) or $25 at Walmart with free store pickup.
You might also be able to score a nice beg jar at the thrift store or look around for other glass containers at Walmart or Target.
You can bend the branches to fit your jar – or cut them – but I'm keeping them long in case I decide to move them into a taller vase one day.
The vase has come in handy SO MANY TIMES over the years – we've used them for pantry organization and party food organization and all sorts of things. They'll never NOT find a use around here so they're so worth the money in my opinion!
Here's a link to the pendant lights too ~ we recently updated them and I absolutely love them!
Last summer I was thumbing (um, scrolling), through Instagram and saw a few beautiful rooms with the most gorgeous flowers.
I assumed they were fresh because they were so pretty, but when I saw a swipe-up to Amazon I was like . . . what?
I ordered.
OH MY WORD.
After wasting too much money on fresh flowers (that die too fast!), these are my new favorite Amazon purchase ever.
Here you go.
These white peonies are under $12 right now and the pink ones are under $15 – which is cheaper than what I paid for mine a few months ago!
And these huge cherry blossom branches are priced around $15-$30. Not the least expensive bushes I've ever seen (and I seriously should have ironed my tablecloth to show you!), but I adore them. (Looks like the Light Pink are sold out, but you can get the darker pink here!).
Happy Day!

Did I miss it? What about the White Tulips?
Laurie,
Where did you get the mirror with the “balls” on it?
I ordered the peonies the last time you posted them and they sent the wrong ones… with the Hobby Lobby price sticker still attached to them. A little afraid to order them again!
Oh no ~ so sorry to hear that Jill! For questions or issues with your order, I’d try reaching out to the Amazon customer service ~ hope that helps!
Are your the pink or light pink?
Mine are the light pink! 🙂
Laurie, what quantity did you purchase for the look you showed in the glass vase? is this three items? I am wondering because it looks like one stem is $33.99 so three would cost over $100. Just want to be sure before ordering.
Hi Nancy! Each $33.99 order should come with three 30″ stems, so you should only have to order one $33.99 set to get the same look as the jar in the post! 🙂 Hope that helps!
Yes, thanks. It didn’t look that way to me in the description on the Amazon page.
Those are beautiful pink cherry blossoms but which brand?
The ones in your picture are not the skinny cherry blossoms the link takes me too. Very skinny branches and a lot of them, not the thick branches that taper that your picture shows.
Hi Laurie!
I feel like I am writing to an old friend. You are precious!
I would love to know where to find the light fixtures over your island. Can you give me the information? And while you are at it, can you tell me about the stovetop? I normally do not notice these things, but we are building and I am completely overwhelmed! I spotted both items in your videos and would love to have the information.
Thanks so much!
Gretchen
Hi Gretchen! The lights were actually from our contractor – but you can find similar ones here! https://www.lampsplus.com/products/chandeliers/manufacturer_capital-lighting/?gclid=CjwKCAiAl4WABhAJEiwATUnEFzD9KF6l1upghbzLl9vkjJL653vc0gqFPAfOUwjTE531nfdM7I52WBoCxFgQAvD_BwE
The gas range is a GE gas range. Hope that helps (and goodness, I’m so so glad you’re here – happy building!) 🙂
Thank you so much for the information! And thanks for everything you do. You and your team are such a blessing. I hope you all have a fantastic weekend!
Thank you so much Gretchen! We love hearing that ~ have an awesome weekend :)!!
Bummer, I thought the Peonies where the real bulbs….
I have a plant of the real bulbs and live them !!!
I bring in the pot every winter before the temp goes down to 50* and they will start to come back up before I put them back out on May 15.
Can you link the white pitcher that the peonies are in?
I found it at Home Goods! 🙂
Could you put a link to the pink cherry blossoms you have, the link I found is just to a page of blossoms, but I would like to get to the exact ones you have. Thanks
