The 2017 Decor Trend that has our Hearts Fluttering: The Butterfly Motif

Posted by Tori Radday on Jan 18th 2017

Hello! A new year brings a flurry of new trends with it and we can't get enough of the home decor trend predictions for 2017. We're excited to leave past trends in 2016 so that we can really refresh and revitalize our homes this year with all of the latest and greatest decor trends. The most recent home decor trend that caught our eye is the butterfly motif trend. Why do we love the trend? It's easy to incorporate into any home, it can easily lighten/lift the mood or atmosphere of any room and the optimistic nature of the trend is simply irresistible. Today we've rounded up several of our favorite butterfly-themed pieces for you all so you can try out the trend in your home. You know we will!

Blue Wildflowers Butterfly and Dragonfly Mat Area Accent Rug


1. Blue Wildflowers Butterfly and Dragonfly Mat Area Accent Rug, $45.07. This gorgeous accent rug combines the butterfly motif trend with another one of our favorite 2017 trends: Pantone's 2017 Color of the Year, "Greenery." Better snatch this trendy piece up before everyone else does!


Flutter Butterfly Garden Flag Banner 12.5 x 18 Inch Toland


2. Flutter Butterfly Garden Flag Banner 12.5 x 18 Inch Toland, $12.88. We can't help but love the beautiful butterfly print and pretty colors of this garden flag banner. Perfect for decorating if you'd rather follow the butterfly trend in your garden instead of inside your home.

Iris and Monarch Butterfly Art Single Switch Plate Cover


3. Iris and Monarch Butterfly Art Single Switch Plate Cover, $9.93. Maybe you're digging the butterfly trend but aren't ready to cover your home with butterflies left and right; if so, this butterfly switchplate cover works perfectly to incorporate the decor trend into your home without the trend completely taking over your home. Just think about how cute this butterfly switchplate cover would look in your bedroom, living room, bathroom, etc.

Blue Butterfly and Gerber Daisy Floral Night Light

4. Blue Butterfly and Gerber Daisy Floral Night Light, $17.98. This butterfly nightlight was on our "favorites" list before the butterfly trend even emerged. One of the things about the butterfly motif trend that we really love is that obviously it's trendy but it's also not too trendy that the butterfly pieces you buy now will go out of style. You may purchase a few butterfly pieces now to follow the trend in your home but chances are you'll still have those pieces decorating your home years later. A piece like this night light will never go out of style even though it may currently be very trendy.

Blue Monarch Butterfly Ceiling Fan Pull or Light Pull Chain

5. Blue Monarch Butterfly Ceiling Fan Pull or Light Pull Chain, $11.94. Not sure if you're totally in love with the butterfly trend or not yet? Try it out by incorporating small doses of the trend into your home; for example, decorating your ceiling fan with this cute butterfly fan pull to see if the butterfly trend works well for your home. And for just under $12, you really can't go wrong!
