Big things are happening in my apartment! And when I say big, I really mean reorganizing and moving furniture around – apartment living, amiright? While we’d love to be knocking walls down and redoing the floors, I’ll settle with creating the cutest little monochromatic focal point with plants in my bedroom!
I love white pots – we really only have pots in a few colors, primarily white and terra cotta, with a few others sprinkled in. After moving a dresser around, so that it’s sitting directly in front of a bright window, I knew I’d have to move plants to fill up the space.
Creating a monochromatic look
So, I pulled an armful of plants from around the apartment and placed most of my plants in white pots to give a nice, uniform look. As it turns out, the plants I have in white pots all work really well together. Together, they’re a nice combination of small and large, viney and succulents.
When creating a monochromatic look, keep these tips in mind:
- Mix up the pots – go for a single color in multiple shapes and sizes
- Diversify your plants – keep it interesting with multiple types of plants
- Keep it fresh – I like to move plants around pretty frequently, if you’re not loving the arrangement, try out another combination
I love the monochromatic look this arrangement creates. It’s almost like the white pots fade away into the wall, the plants are the complete focus!
The plants:
From left to right, here are the plants I have on this dresser:
- Variegated pothos
- Sansevieria or snake plant
- Aloe vera
- Peperomia
- Variegated hoya
You may notice the wall in the background too, we’re making a few other updates around the apartment. I can’t wait to share more photos once we’ve finished decorating and reorganizing!
