Window openings can be decorated with greenery in an unusual way. Light-loving flowers are often placed near the windows, but if the window sill is used as table, the pots can be hung on the curtain rod.

A collection of low plants should be placed between the slopes, attaching transparent or wooden shelves, painted white: this way they will reduce the absorption of natural light entering the room.

In addition to the built-in shelves, there are separate racks on sale that allow you to place the pots at different levels.

Today's trend - aromatherapy with plants containing essential oils. If you want to fill the room with a light scent of freshness, we recommend planting tea tree, myrtle or mint in pots. Plant lavender to reduce anxiety and insomnia.

On shelves and racks

Connoisseurs of phytodesign create special designs for plants that allow you to collect plantings into a single ensemble. Wall shelves are fixed with brackets, can be made of wood or metal and have a variety of shapes.

In addition to the pots themselves, various useful and decorative little things are placed on the shelves: watches, souvenirs and photographs. The main thing is not to overload the composition and not create a feeling of clutter.

Try to choose pots of the same series or shade for each room - if the capacity differs from others, the balance will be disturbed.

Under the ceiling

Lovers climbing plants find the most unexpected places for their placement: vines in hanging pots look original and save valuable floor space.

One of the original ways to decorate the sleeping area - hang flowers right above bed, choosing for this light pots and plantings without aroma. In order to avoid accidents, such suspensions are fixed carefully.

Another impressive solution - plants over dining table... They will provide comfort in the dining room and add a natural touch to the room. And if there is windows in the bathroom, indoor flowers on the ceiling will create a unique atmosphere and help you relax in the bath after a hard day.

On furniture

If the room has furniture that is not uniform in style, the plants will add unity to the atmosphere and draw attention to themselves. It is necessary to distribute them in accordance with light-requiring.

Plantings with falling branches and leaves are best placed on a cupboard, making sure that the opening doors do not touch the shoots. To decorate or disguise unsightly pots, you can use wooden boxes appropriate in style loft, scandi and eco. 

Even if the indoor flower looks quite aesthetically pleasing on the floor, it is worth putting it on a chair or a stack of magazines: this will make it even more expressive.

On auxiliary structures

Green spaces can zone the room, if you fix them on a screen or floor hanger. Even more interesting are special open cabinets with a recess at the top, which carry three functions at the same time: storage, zoning and decor.

And how to place several hanging pots at once? The curtain rod comes to the rescue again.

Fixed on the wall, and not over the window opening, it will serve as an excellent basis for creating a solid composition.

A phytowall or a living panel can be made from unpretentious succulents or stabilized moss that does not require maintenance. In the kitchen, it is useful to break up a small vegetable garden with edible herbs: if there is not enough space, the structure should be placed vertically, using wooden slats as a base.

If you want to decorate the wall with curly shoots, attach a metal or wooden lattice to it. This design is easy to do with your own hands.
