Summer is the perfect time to refresh your home decor and uplift the entire mood of your home environment. If you live in small apartments, decorating your home in summer with green plants can be a bit tricky. You always have to maintain a balance between the elegant beauty of lush greenery and the rest of the decor to create a well-functioning setup.
To help you with this challenge of using green plants in a balanced way I want to share some great summer home decor ideas with you. Read on.
Keeping Plants on Open Wall Shelves
Open shelves in the kitchen area or your living room are perfect spots for keeping your small plants. Cute planters, growing herbs, or climber plants placed on open shelves not only add a natural element but also give a pop of color in your home decor. Plants like Pilea or potted succulents will sit nicely on wall shelves. Air plants may also be placed in a glass bowl or industrial pot, or on driftwood to add a rustic touch.
Place Plants on Wooden Racks and Windows
One space-efficient and stylish hack to decorate your home in summer is to reuse your old furniture and create a wooden rack to place your plants on. Placing plants at different levels on a wooden rack creates a stunning focal point in the home interior. In addition, you can decorate your windows with climbing houseplants or little pots to give a fresh update to your home.
I would recommend indoor climbing plants like ivy, creeping fig or string of pearls as they cascade down, creating an indoor oasis.
Dedicate a Small Corner to Plants
If you have an isolated corner in your home, you can utilize it to create a mini nursery or garden for you. Small trees and plants occupying a corner of your home add luxurious details and create a relaxing space to hang out in your home during summers.
Snake plants, peace lilies, calatheas or bird of paradise are perfect for your living or bedroom room and are great companion plants for your home.
