Call it the coastal grandmother effect, but lemon decor is having its moment in the sun. Don't believe us? Check out this TikTok, which went viral earlier this month after user @emcal09 showed off her HomeGoods find along with a caption that said her boyfriend "hated her new lemon table." Commenters were quick to side with her, agreeing that it was an adorable table and asking where it was from. (Unfortunately, it's not currently listed on the HomeGoods site, but we hopefully found enough alternatives to suffice.)
While lemon decor tends to lean coastal, it really can fit into any design style, from farmhouse to midcentury modern. If you're in a pinch for an upcoming Sunday brunch, you can always grab some fresh lemons from the grocery store and toss them into a vase or bowl for a bright (and easy) centerpiece. But, if you really want to dig into the trend and spread sunshine into every corner of your home, here are some great lemon decor ideas to get your creative juices flowing.
