Hanging Terrariums: An Unexpected Way to Display Plants {Indoors & Outdoors}


Plants are the must-have home accessory. Not only are they both natural and cost effective, but they also have a serene and calming quality which is good for the spirit. It's important for you to incorporate outdoor elements into your indoor space because it improves mood, lifts energy and freshens the air. Since it's Spring, nurseries and gardens across the country are opening their doors for garden season. In replace of the typical potted houseplant, a hanging terrarium offers a cheeky and unexpected way to display your greenery. Many of them are also made of partly recycled glass (so you're also helping the environment). Many of the terrariums I found hang from a rope and can be displayed with a single flower or a more lush combination of moss, plants and flowers. If you're not into the hanging aspect, you could always use unexpected planters like spruced up coffee cans, watering cans, and other materials to create a bold design statement with your plants. What do you think of these hanging beauties?
