🌿 1. Why Decorating with Plants Matters

Plants do more than add color — they create calm, improve air quality, and make your space feel alive. Whether your home is minimalist or full of personality, plants adapt to your style and make it shine naturally.

Here’s how to decorate every room of your home with the perfect plant and a few thoughtful design tips 🌱

🛋️ 2. Living Room — Go Bold and Lush

Your living room is the heart of your home, so make it green and welcoming.

    • Pair ceramic or rattan pots with soft textures like linen cushions.
      💡 Pro tip: Place plants near windows but avoid direct afternoon sunlight.

🍽️ 3. Kitchen — Functional & Fresh

Kitchens love greenery that doubles as décor and utility.

  • Best plants: Herbs (basil, rosemary, mint), pothos, aloe vera.
