Wood Plant Stands - Combining Nature With Elegance
Plants are a luxurious addition to any part of your house from the living room to the patio and beyond. You can decorate with indoor plants that are verdant and healthy, making your rooms come alive. There's something about plants looking so vigorous and green! How do you display your plants? Do you just plan to leave them on the floor? Wood plant stands are the perfect solution, adding just the right decorative touch. There is no shortage of choice for the plant stands and you can get them in polished oak or mahogany
Wood plant stands are a very elegant addition to the room; they match the décor of most any room and will blend in beautifully due to their versatility. Take the time to plan where you will position the stands, the sizes you will need based on the plants you have and the space available, the color that should match existing furniture and the design that will fit the overall aesthetics of the room. Your plants should match the kind of wood stands you buy and the two should compliment each other.
Indoors
Try not to go for very big, clumsy stands that take up too much space; opt instead for elegant, sleek, carved pieces that will fit well into small spaces. It's not always a matter of money, you may have plenty to spend but you need to factor in good taste as well.
You can get cherry wood, table style, square plant stands, simple in design and with a marble top that will be a good protector for the wood. You have to order it online and assembly is very easy. Get two and place them strategically in your home to complement a work of art or an entranceway.
If you have some space to spare and not in favor of something too tall, you can try the mahogany oriental style folding wood plant stand that opens out to hold your plant. It is solidly constructed with six legs to keep it steady, all of them beautifully carved.
Wood plant stands can be found ranging from simple wood structures to tiered ones for terraces and gardens, hand crafted stands and made from scratch stands, simple rustic furniture to contemporary classics designed to match any décor. You get wood plant stands that have a hole in the top for holding the plant pot or you can get flat topped and put the plant on a plant plate and then on the stand. Trailing plants look good when placed in the receptacle designed in the stand for the pot. The plant stands come with marble tops and glass tops, though with the glass ones you have to be careful about the weight of the plant you are placing on it.
Outdoors
If you are looking for wood plant stands for the garden you may want to explore plant stands shaped like wheelbarrows, a rather attractive addition to the garden. Fill the barrow up with flowing pots and place it in a spot that makes a great color statement. Planter boxes are also available in wood, paint them in bright colors and place them on the patio or in the garden for added color.
