Whimsy maxxing is a decor trend on social media that’s all about bringing joyousness into your home and your design decisions. The trend applies a more whimsical mindset to daily routines through accessorizing and decorating.

What is Whimsy Maxxing?

Lauren Phillips, vice president at Better Homes, defines whimsy maxxing as “intentionally adding joy and playfulness to everyday life.” This trend encourages adding a splash of fun to otherwise practical items, or to collecting decorative items just because.

Phillips highlighted the focus on nostalgia-driven designs, too. Rather than completely rethink your space, Phillips said to start small. She cited statement pieces as quick and easy mood-changers.

Whimsy maxxing can be practical, too. You can switch out regular glassware for something a little more fun, like colored cups. Customizable whimsy can also be tasty! With a simple mold, dollops of butter on pancakes and ice cubes in drinks can be hearts and other shapes rather than the conventional square.
