Mounted Plants truly are a work of art. Placing them in your home could sometimes be difficult because you want to make sure they are getting sufficient light and are not tucked in the corner of your room above that pile of dirty clothes. Ensuring they are placed in an aesthetically pleasing place is one thing you want to be mindful of. Here are a couple of ideas.



1. The bathroom is a perfect place for mounting a plant, oftentimes bathrooms have small windows that can give off just enough light to keep the plant thriving. Also, the extra moisture from the shower from time to time couldn't hurt.

2. Near an entrance or exit to your home. Bringing the outside indoors, is often what draws us plant lovers to them in the first place. Placing a mounted plant near an entrance or an exit will make a warm and friendly transition from the outdoors. Creating a cluster of mounted plants together is conceptually pleasing.

3. Adjacent to a window. Mounting a plant next to any other existing hanging window foliage would make your window plant jungle continue to grow!

4. Hanging next to other photos of family & friends or other decor. If you have a place on your wall that you are looking to bring some life and texture, a mounted plant would be a great addition.

5. Depending on the time of year, if you have a space outside where you can provide the appropriate lighting and environmental conditions. Mounted plants can be outside! Hanging them on fences as decor or on outdoor walls would be an amazing addition to your outdoor space.

6. If you don't have any interest in mounting it anywhere and have a shelf that would be sufficient. Propping it up against a wall or another object may be a cool way to display a mounted plant.
