Creative Air Plant Display Idea DIY

This display began when a beautiful walnut cutting board cracked, after many years of use. I couldn’t just leave it in a corner and not use the wood for creating something new. Have you had anything that you just can’t let go of

This is one of mine!

I thought I should cut the wood in different size pieces and create a layered look to display air plant.

You can create this look with any scrap of wood you have in your home.

What will you Need?

• Get creative and find unique pieces around your home!
• Different types of air plants; different colors, textures and heights.
• Fresh herbs from your garden.
• A piece that is a vintage or meaningful item.
• Feathers
• Wood Blocks
• Tea Candles with clear cup
• Jar with different textures and colors to add a vintage look.

I found the tray on amazon and loved the different jars. That is when I decided to take it to the next level.

What to place the Air plants in for a creative look

The most important thing when you do a creative air plant display is to use different textures and glass sizes to bring together the story. I found this Amazon decor piece and realized that the glasses had a vintage feel and I transformed the look to be a creative air plant display.

The best thing is, no water needed!

This fact really makes for allowing for creative ways to display air plants.

I just love this about them. So much you can do with air plants!

How to Frame an Air Plant Display.

There are a few important things that I followed for a creative air plant display:

• Anchor your display with taller air plants at the ends. Feathers are also a great addition.
• Use candle light to highlight the dramatic shapes and soften them against the wood.
• Introduce your favorite herb to soften the linear shapes.

An Air plant Display can be as unique as you Dream of.

How to bring it all together your Display

A creative air plant display does not need to be complicated. You can achieve this by bringing the pieces you love the most and anchoring them on a raised surface to contain them and frame the look.

Now that you have the tools, go create an amazing display with your favorite air plants! I use air plants in so many ways, but I think a table centerpiece is my favorite creative air plant display. Tell me how you plan to display yours! Remember that this is an opportunity to incorporate pieces that have a story and create what you love most, an opportunity to tell a story.
