The Power of Plants

Last year I made a goal to have a plant in each room of our house.
Being new to purchasing plants means I do a lot of googling in the store when I see a plant I like. No sense in buying a plant that will be too tricky to care for. All our plants get watered once a week to keep things on a reasonable schedule. So far – we’ve had a lot of success!

I’m intentional with planning decor for our home, and plants seem to have a perfect place in each room. Not only are they vibrant and fresh, but the benefits of house plants seem to be plentiful. 

Plants are much more than a pretty conversation piece. Extensive research has validated the purifying elements that plants bring to their home environment.  Not only do plants increase air quality and  improve overall well-being, they are linked to elevated levels of productivity in humans.  Much like being surrounded by outdoor nature, indoor plants can be said to create a more natural work-environment, cultivating creativity and clarity.

Pretty with a purpose. My kind of decor.
