4 Alternatives to House Plants That Will Brighten up Your Home

House plants are everywhere but they’re not necessarily for everyone. Maybe your apartment doesn’t get enough light, perhaps you travel a lot, or perhaps you just don’t have a green thumb! While houseplant-crazy Instagram might suggest otherwise, there are plenty of other ways to brighten up your home, without creating a living indoor jungle.

Dried Flowers

Dried flowers are having a moment and we are here for it. With these pretty everlasting bouquets, you don’t have the guilt of throwing away cut flowers, or the demands of caring for a living plant.

Botanical Prints

Botanical prints are a great way of bringing greenery indoors, without bringing ACTUAL greenery indoors. Invest in some botanical prints and nice frames and your walls will be instantly brighter!

Sculptures

Models of cactuses, organic-shaped vases, and other plant-inspired 3D artworks can deliver that sculptural element that house plants can bring to your home. You could even take a pottery class and make your own!

Natural Objects

Instead of plants, why not try displaying other naturally found objects like shells, driftwood, or dried seed heads? These will add a rustic, natural feel to your home, without the need for a watering schedule!
