Say Bye to Winter Blues By Adding Beautiful Spring Greens

A variety of beautiful plants in a corner of a sunroom: a fiddleleaf fig, a philodendron, and a ponytail palm.

In January I wrote a blog about bringing in the green to encourage thoughts of spring. And although I was so gung-ho about adding fresh greenery to my decor… I couldn’t find many houseplants at the time! Inventory was so low and it was a sad day indeed! But luckily since then, my gorgeous plants have come in! And, it was sure worth the wait! For me, nothing brightens up a home this time of year like a luscious leafy fern. So, say bye to winter blues by adding beautiful spring greens!

Houseplants are the best! They really are! Whenever I have a dark corner or ho-hum space I just add a wonderful spot of green to liven things up! Plants can bring much-needed life and cheer into any room. Whether it’s ivy, philodendron, spider plants, or lemon button ferns… these leafy friends create instant spring in my home!

For added interest why not consider using vintage baskets or handmade pottery? There are many incredible options to choose from. Amazon is a wonderful source for houseplant-related items, like woven baskets, ceramic bowls, and even plant food (paid links).

Vintage Baskets

1. Decorative Floral Raffia

I found a set of these pretty little vintage floral baskets with delicate raffia flowers at a local thrift store. I was able to get a set of 2 for $4.99. They are perfect for holding my blooming daffodils and really reflect the spring vibe.

Nothing is better than a handcrafted pottery piece that is made with love! These yellow-glazed pots were made by my daughter in high school and were hand-turned on a pottery wheel in art class. My mini ivy plants look so cheery in these beauties!
