DECORATING WITH INDOOR PLANTS: HOW TO STYLE PLANTS ON A TABLE
Decorating with indoor plants is big time fun, and I want to share with you how I restyled the long, narrow table in my dining room/living room.
DECORATING WITH INDOOR PLANTS – THE SIMPLE STEPS
The process of arranging these plants and pots is like cleaning out your closets. Take everything out, and go from there.
I painted and decorated 4 of the pots and baskets.
All the plants were taken off the table top and bottom and put on the dining room table. I thoroughly cleaned the table and the floor behind it. Who knows when this will ever be done again!
I started putting the plants and the pots back on the table. I decided to go with fewer plants so it didn’t look so crowded and smushed together. I have a few black features in this space (which you’ll see in the video) and decided to keep the accents of black on the bottom shelf.
Make sure you know where plants are going and that they’re in the right exposure before you start playing arouund with the pots. In the photo above the Rubber Plant and Agalonema Lady Valentine (on the left) get more light from a nearby south window than the Satin Pothos and Aglaonema Maria on the opposite end.
I kept the color palette earthy and somewhat neutral on the top shelf because quite a few of the plants are variegated. The Aglaonema Lady Valentine (the pink plant) really steals the show!
I switched around a few of the pots until I was happy with the look.

Indoor plant decor adds so much to our homes. I hope this has given you indoor plant arrangement ideas and inspirations. Go ahead, express yourself and have a good time doing it!
Happy gardening,
