Hang Your Plants
The tension rod
This is Deanna’s house. She shares her vintage style and love for plants on Instagram @habitpattern.sf. I need to visit her home someday because she has the most classic eclectic style with perfect intention. I’m sharing this picture today because I LOVE this tension rod ( similar to this one or this one) she uses to display her hanging plants. It’s perfect for someone in an apartment or temporary living situation. It’s also a great way to get plants out of the reach of animals and small children. You can check out pet safe plants here.
wall plants
This photo is from @tribeandus. I have a total crush on them. Their house is so amazing and their little family is SO CUTE! In their bedroom, they’ve used S hooks to hang macrame plant hangers on everything from existing light fixtures to hung wall art. It’s a great way to hang plants without putting too many holes in your walls.They also just started a blog tribeandus.com with plant DIYs and Inspiration! If you’re looking for the best types of hanging plants, check out my post here!
balcony gardens
Scott is the KING of balcony gardens. I mean look at this place! It’s his own little tropical oasis. My favorite thing about Scott’s balcony is how he uses all different styles of plant hangers to really create the perfect eclectic jungle vibe. Follow him on Instagram @tropicaloco
Hanging plant shelf
Welcome to my home! This hanging shelf is something I had my husband build for me AND I LOVE IT! It took an afternoon and some time to hang it but that’s it! It’s just unfinished wood but the plants will eventually cover it up 🙂 This shelf has been featured in Domino’s Best Plant Instagram Accounts, and my book, How To Raise A Plant And Make It Love You Back. Learn how to make this DIY Hanging Plant Shelf here!
basket beauties
Ohh Chi…this girl has so much style! Owner of simplychivintage.com, she has a way of finding vintage pieces and mixing them to create a boho eclectic style. She incorporates a lot of plants into her home and work. In this photo, Chi shows us how you can take just about anything and make it into a planter. With a little bit of string and a sturdy decorative branch, now you have a funky plant display that’s so unique! She has tons more inspiration on Instagram @simplychivintage
double up
Morgan from @plantingpink has done something so simple here but I love it! She took two macrame plant hangers and hung them on the same hook. That’s it! It makes for a fun grouped together look that you can always switch out from time to time.
entryway style
Laney from @pineandbirch makes really amazing, quality wood signs. In this picture I love how she’s hung a leather planter from a coat rack. It’s such a fun way of displaying plants in your entryway.
from the windows to the wall
Jeannie Phan is an illustrator and a plant lover. She shares her plant love and decor on Instagram @studioplants. I love how she mixes a bright white modern looking home with plants housed in vintage baskets (similar to this one). In this photo she hangs vintage baskets on the wall with vining plants like philodendrons.
beam me up
Sabrina has an awesome Instagram account full of beautiful plants. This picture in particular made me stop scrolling and go back. I’ve always been a fan of exposed beams. There is something very industrial about them that I love and when I saw that she hung plants from one, I was like, WHAT?! It just looks so cool. She used hook lag bolts to hang her macrame plant hangers.
coat racks aren’t for coats
@theoperatingsystem is one of my favorites to follow on Instagram. Olena has an eye for fancy foliage and she really proves that in her photography. She’s in a NY apartment and finds brilliant ways to hang and display her huge plant collection. Here she’s using a coat rack (I believe) to hang her plant hangers. It’s a great idea especially if you live in a place where you can’t put holes in the walls or ceiling.

Hi my name is Maria, ever since I was a little girl, my grandma and I use to go with a barrel And shovels to look for horse or cow menuer for her flowers in her garden. It was a wonderful thing to do. So i Gruew up loving plants is something that I can’t be without. Thank you for your decorating ideas.

Do you have a suggestion for how to hang a plant that’s inside of a coco fiber-lined container on to dry wall? The container is supposed to be against a wall but doesn’t come with the proper screws/tools. I want to be able to pull the container off the wall and water the plant completely and then put it back on some sort of hook (?) but the hooks I am finding work with ceilings, not walls.
thank you
