1. Decoration with stand-alone statement plants

Certain plants work as stand-alone statement pieces in your décor. Whether placed on the table or the ground, they become the defining feature of any area they are placed in. Succulents and cacti are excellent options for stand-alone plants. There are a variety of structural shapes in cacti and succulents that can enhance the look of a space. Another great advantage of these plants is that they are low maintenance. Besides succulents, tropical plants are also a great option. You can choose large tropical plants like Fiddle Leaf Figs as a stand-alone decoration for any corner of the bedroom.

2. Plant collections

You can also choose to include a collection of different plants tied together with some common aspect or theme. For example, you decorate your interiors with living plants by selecting those plant collections that complement the décor. Since there will be multiple plants to take care of, choosing those that require very little maintenance is vital. A great way to incorporate this idea is by decorating with a group of succulents with different proportions and shapes.

3. Plant shelves

A plant shelf, as the name suggests, is a shelf that has a display of plants. You can create a relaxing environment in your room by including plant shelves in your décor. Another way to include plants in the bedroom is by placing them on your bookshelf. This will add some dimension to the bookcase and give the room a much better feel.

4. Carts for decorating plants

You can also choose to decorate your plants in a cart with wheels. A coach is a much more exciting display option as opposed to a table. This will also allow you to move the plants to any place in the house. Besides, it also adds some character to the room. Finally, you can display your plants on antique bar carts which have mirror surfaces.

5. Wall hanging plants

Decorating plants with wall hangers is a great way to dress up your walls and incorporating some green elements in the bedroom. There are many creative ways you can hang the plants in your room. Whether it is plant hangers or open or closed terrariums, there is no shortage of choices.

Plants are a great décor option for adding some charm to your room. From propagation stations to Kokedama, you can choose a myriad of options to decorate your bedroom with plants.
