THINK OUTSIDE THE VASE

Adding plants in unexpected places, and in unexpected ways, is an easy update for your home. Waking up to the scent of fresh flowers, or a glimpse of greenery while making dinner is a surefire way to raise your spirits. They don’t have to be large, formal arrangements - in fact, a loose bouquet in a repurposed jar, or a collection of succulents on a shelf are fabulous ways to add color and fragrance.

Have some formal china that you don’t use nearly enough? Pop in some fresh blooms, and perch them on a sunny windowsill, dresser, or side table.

Looking for an adorable and inexpensive way to decorate a table for a shower or party? Tiny succulents on a tiered stand look darling - and can double as gifts.

Kids have outgrown their bikes? Vintage bicycles are perfect opportunities to display your blooms, propped on your porch, or up against a fence in your garden. You can spray paint them to match your decor, and the more they weather, the better.

You know who loves a good soak in a sunny bath more than you do? Your plants!

There are many moisture-loving varieties of greenery that would thrive in a steamy environment like a bathroom - and make you feel like you're in a spa.

What could be nicer than waking up to the scent of fresh flowers every morning? Fragrant flowers can really set a positive tone. Such a simple way to start your day on a high note. Ahhhh...

 Plants and flowers are an easy way to make a house feel like a home. Take a look around, and you'll be inspired!
