Styling Guide to Enhance Every Room’s Decor with Artificial Plants

1. The Living Room

Figuratively speaking, the living room is your home’s centre-point, where you spend quality time with family and friends. You want the space to feel inviting, warm and comfortable. Artificial plants can easily achieve this by adding a touch of greenery without the hassle of maintenance.

• Create a statement piece with a large, elegant tree, such as the fake tall fiddle leaf fig or a monstera, or frame a window with a curtain of faux ivy.
• Corners are great spots for tall plants like artificial bamboo trees or areca palm trees, which add vertical interest. They can also be kept near seating areas for a cosy feel.

The plants mentioned above add vibrancy and create a great attraction point in your room. The best thing is that they can also be replaced seasonally, allowing for a versatile and ever-changing look in your living room.

2. The Bedroom

Creativity can also be expressed in your bedroom’s decor, as you can beautify it with a touch of fake greenery. You can opt for artificial plants with softer shapes and saturated colour to create an inviting atmosphere.

• Enhance the ambience of your space by decorating bedside tables with elegant faux trailing ferns or fake succulent orchids.
• Hang faux creeping vines like the philodendron heartleaf for a peaceful corner, inviting relaxation and serenity.
• Faux-topiary balls are a fantastic choice for adorning dressers and nightstands with elegance and charm.

Remember, less can be more in the intimate setting of a bedroom, so choose your pieces sparingly and with mindfulness. Whether it’s a succulent’s calmness or a floor-length bamboo’s privacy, your bedroom’s renewal will echo the timeless vision of serenity that artificial plants offer without the upkeep.

3. The Bathroom

The bathroom offers a unique opportunity to be playful with choices. The moisture-heavy environment of your bathing space is an ideal match for using maintenance-free artificial plants. 

• Faux orchids blend organically with bathroom decor, adding layers of texture and purity.
• Create tropical vibes with fake snake plants or tall aloe, or bring a modern touch with geometric wall art filled with faux cypress pine trees.
• You can opt for hanging faux succulents to grace your shower corners or a small topiary at the centre of your countertop.

And let’s not forget one of the crucial benefits of having faux plants in the bathroom – they can help eliminate unpleasant odours! While most real plants emit oxygen and fresh scents, artificial plants can be sprayed with essential oils or air fresheners to create a similar effect. Plus, they won’t wilt or die, keeping your bathroom smelling fresh and fragrant all year round.

4. The Kitchen

Kitchens are the natural domain of fresh herbs. Decorative and practical faux plants provide a pleasing experience to the kitchen.

• Elevate your kitchen decor with large fake boxwood topiaries or artificial potted topiary trees gracefully adorning your windowsill.
• Hanging artificial ivy plants brings the space a delightful touch of elegance, creating a playful yet refined atmosphere.
• Consider verdant hanging artificial trellis, green wall discs, and extendable boston ivy leaf wall panel to transform your kitchen walls into a showcase of green. 

These fake plants are not just about adding aesthetics but creating a functional yet beautiful environment where every corner comes alive with greenery.

5. The Hallway

The hallway sets the tone for your home. As it’s the first and last space you see, it must feel cohesive with the rest of your interior. Artificial plants can make even this transient area feel more welcoming and warm.

• Fake plants with bushy foliage, like potted pothos or snake plants, work well. They are vibrant and will be manageable in the narrow space.
• A larger potted plant like wide leaf cordyline or monstera can provide a beautiful focal point if your hallway has a nook or alcove. Place it on a high shelf to draw the eye upwards, making your hallway feel bigger.
