Have Fun With Vines

Shape your vines so that they wrap around a mirror. This will help keep dangling leaves off the floor and add some pep to your front hall. Who says decorating with greenery is only for the holiday season?

Transform a Bar Cart

Not in the mood for cocktails? Take an empty bar cart and use it as a plant stand. Wheels make it easy to move green friends throughout the house as needed. If plants are showing signs of too much sun, simply roll the cart away from the window.

Try Terracotta

“When it comes to styling with plants, I always tell people to have fun with it, be creative, and try new things,” Fuentealba says. “Make sure you understand what your plant needs to thrive, and listen to the signs your plant is giving you. Play with planters: hang some, mount some. I’m personally a huge terracotta lover, so I’m always on the hunt for terracotta pots that have different textures and designs.”

Deck the Loo

Plants aren’t just for our main living spaces. Make your nightly bubble bath feel even more zen by bringing some plants into the loo. You’ll recreate the feel of your favorite tropical spa-like getaway without having to go very far.

Style a Hutch

Transform a hutch into a sophisticated plant storage system by filling the shelves with various sizes of pots. Don’t be afraid to stack some on top if your collection begins to overflow a little.

“I like to disperse my plants around my home, so I can see them in every corner, but you can also group them together on a shelf or cabinet,” Fuenteabla comments. “If you are feeling stuck with where to start, there is so much inspiration all around, especially with Instagram. Just start with a few plants and go from there. It’ll take time to grow your collection; enjoy the journey.”

Make Over Your TV Stand

Instagrammer Agatha Isabel of @plant.ma is all for doing double duty in her apartment. “I have a trailing and climbing wall full of Philodendron, Scindapsus, and Monstera on my TV stand,” she explains. “I have a concrete wall where the plants love to attach to the porous surface, and I even use command light hooks to help those trailing plants climb their way up. There’s also a grow light right above the space to help train the plants to climb and reach upwards.”

Try a Tall Tree

Once again, don’t be shy about bringing plants into the bathroom if you have the space and ample lighting. A thriving fiddle leaf fig adds major visual interest by the sink.

And if your loo doesn’t have windows, Isabel offers another suggestion. “I’ve turned my windowless bathroom into a propagation and isolation area for my new plants,” she explains. “I recommend isolating new plants when you first receive them in order to make sure you’re not bringing any plants pests in your area. Simply turn your bathroom into a prop room with the help of a grow light.”

Add Cheer to Your Home Office

Add some plant life to your home workspace to make long days in front of the computer screen feel a little less blah. While keeping your desktop relatively clear is important, plants can still live on the ground or hang from the ceiling.

Forget the Headboard

Who needs a formal headboard when you can have a wall of plants above your bed instead? Fall asleep dreaming of the outdoors with an intricate display like this one.

Pretty Up Your Patio

Take your patio to the next level with an assortment of larger plants that eliminate the need for further decoration. In this space, fiddle leaf figs and Monstera plants reign supreme.

Try This Finishing Touch

Not sure how to fill that open shelf? Go ahead and add a plant. Just make sure to rotate the pot somewhat often to ensure that your green friend receives ample sunlight on all sides.

Look Up High

No green room is complete without a plant (or several). Hang a shelf above your windows to take advantage of vertical space and allow long vines to hang down without disrupting anyone.

Thinking high up can also be a smart solution for those with pets, Isabel explains. “I have some fur babies that like to run around and tend to knock over plants every once in a while,” she comments. “As a result, I’ve began placing my larger plants on the top shelves to maximize floor space. Coincidentally, they also provide the feel of a jungle canopy.”

Invest in a Special Shelf

This plant shelf is full of plenty of space to allow a collection to keep growing—literally. If you’re not shy about having your plants be the main event in your living space, a setup like this one is a winner.

Upgrade Your Selfies

Even if your plant’s vines don’t wrap all the way around one of your wall mirrors, a little bit of green can make for “extra special selfies,” Isabel shares. “It’s always super exciting when plants start to trail so they can help decorate walls,” she adds. “Just about every mirror in my apartment has some form of trailing plant (my favorite are Scindapsus). They add a little extra flare to tie the space together.”

Create an Illusion

In Fuenteabla’s own space, small terracotta pots shine on a wall, resting inside black holders that, from some angles, create the appearance of the plants floating.

Let Stems Shine

Floating shelves with built-in holes for vases make it easy to display propagation stems, which is an excellent option for those who prefer more of a minimal look. It’s an affordable option for turning plants into decorative objects.

Hang Loose

Have an empty corner? Fill it with a hanging planter and let the beautiful green hue add instant vibrance to your living space.

Forget the Decor

Built-in bookcases, but make them a plant lover’s dream. There’s no need to display books and accessories when an assortment of green friends will automatically steal the show.

Use Every Corner

Even the tiniest shelf can be used to hold a sweet plant pot. No inch of space is off limits when it comes to showcasing your fave blooms.

Make an Entrance

Show off your love of plants from the moment visitors walk in the door. Another bar cart turned plant home looks lovely in this entryway.
