How to Live With Plants Without Having to Take Care of Them Regularly

Plants provide endless company and an inviting visual aesthetic that only mother nature produces. The gorgeous hues of green and other brilliant tones add color and spatial depth to a room instantly. Most everyone enjoys plant life but not everyone is naturally equipped to handle live plants regularly. Daily life can offer the company in plant life, just in different forms. Don’t fret, we have a list of solutions waiting to be explored! For those who want the visible company of plant life without the care of live plants, this is for you.

Single Stems in a Vase

Being able to customize greenery in a home space is not only satisfying, it’s important to those who create the finished product. Here is where selected stems of greenery are paired with a vase as a focus statement. This is the personal reflection of green that entertains many and manifests as companionship in quieter moments.

As Garland

“Drape”, “place,” and “go” are the key words here. If you are not a decorator by nature, let these reflections of nature do the work for you. Simply find a focus spot, make sure you have enough garland to create a solid visual statement, place it, and secure it. Popular places for draping plant garland include over doorways, framing fireplaces, as window swags, in the middle of a buffet, and cascading down the middle of a dining table. As a solo or maximalist statement, plant garland captivates the eye.

As Stationery

Think of the last time you wrote a card or letter to someone. What did the simple stationery look like? Now think of writing that letter or card on stationery surrounded with a popular plant print. There are many ways to integrate plants into stationery. Ever tried embossing? It’s a simple way to elevate lackluster notes. Want to take your message over-the-top? Add a bit of leaf confetti into the envelope. Not only is writing the note pleasing; imagine opening an envelope with this plant life. How exciting is it to read someone’s news while gazing upon palms, caladiums, monstera, ivy vines, and other plants?

On Fabric

Crafters unite; your plant solutions are here in the form of fabric-by-the-yard! As a green or monotone statement, plant life comes to life on fabric. Better and finely woven fabrics illuminate the presence of plant life with woven, embossed finishes. Plant prints or woven fabric can morph into table napkins and teapot cozies, become window dressings, and beautifully wrap Euro shams on a bed.

On Furniture Fabric

Nothing amplifies a space like a piece of furniture with a repeat or central pattern. Upholstery fabric with plant patterns has become increasingly popular with the demand for the likeness of plants. Plant images on furniture offer a single statement piece or coordinating pieces in a minimalist space, or rightfully take their place in a maximalist space. These images also reflect the desires and senses of humor of their home owners.

As Wall Dressings

Wall condition is a reflection of mood as much as it is a visual crowd-pleaser. Here, wall dressings take on all mediums, patterns, and textures. When entering this space, think of how you want to share a space and what you can live with daily. Simple and outlandish reign supreme here, and there are no rules to follow. When approaching plant likeness wall dressings, think about wall paper, painted repeat pattern plaster, vinyl wall paper with relief finishes, fabric, thicker burn out fabric designs, velvet wall covering, or hand painted design and murals.

Printed On Pillows

Minimalist and no-fuss decor enthusiasts rejoice! Your plant-like home decor tip is here. The great part about this process is that you can switch out printed pillow covers at will and in any color and fabric finish. In this decor space, a depth of artistic knowledge may be expressed by the decorator and enjoyed by all. Powerful in statement, some of these smallest plant-adorned accent pieces instantly become usable art while provoking conversation everyone can enjoy.

As a Front Door Greeter

Okay, so you don’t have an actual concierge greeter to verbally welcome everyone who walks up to the front door, but you do have a door and a wreath. Door wreaths make grand statements; let these elements do the talking for you. First, create an inviting front door area free of debris. This may include painting the front door or the surrounding area. Second, select a wreath that reflects a current mood or season. Front door plant wreaths generally take floral, greenery, vine, stem, leaf, berry, and evergreen forms.

Silk Plants

For those who love the shapes and colors of plant life, want the physical likeness of plants, but do not want to keep up with temperature and water care, this solution is for you! These plants effortlessly fill up space while meeting the need for colorful and lifeless company. While they do require a little dusting on occasion, they require far less care than their live counterparts. Yes, you can still name your faux plants, but you don’t have to water them or adjust the humidity to keep them alive! Some popular faux silk and vinyl plants include ficus trees, fig trees, cherry blossom trees, snake plants, Monstera, Caladium plants, succulents, and boxwood topiaries.

Budgeting for greenery in your space may require a small investment. When approaching these plant infusions, remember there is a care element required by each solution. Investing in the care elements is just as important for long-term enjoyment. A care schedule for these solutions may involve seasonal cleanings or dusting, as well as spot cleaning as needed. Each of these solutions may be integrated into any lifestyle pace. There are no formal prerequisites when it comes to enjoying the company of plants, just a desire to share a space with greenery.
