1 Create an amazing indoor plant arrangement

Transform a free-standing clothes rail into a statement house plant display

With our easy step-by-step instructions

1 Select your first trailing plant. If its plastic pot is hidden by foliage, make three evenly spaced holes through the rim of the pot with scissors. Thread a length of string through each hole, securing each in place with a firm knot.

2 Gather the three strings together directly above the centre of the plant at the length from which you want the plant to hang from the rail. Tie a secure knot, leaving a short length of string above.

3 Form a small loop with the excess string and tie it to the existing knot as tightly and neatly as possible. Trim off any remaining string with scissors.

4 Slip the bottom curve of an S-hook through the loop and slowly lift the plant, checking all the knots are secure. Clip the top curve of the S-hook over the bar of the clothes rail. Repeat for all the plants you wish to hang.

5 If you wish to hide a plastic pot from view, place the plant in a decorative sleeve and nestle it securely into a macramé hanger. Tie the hanger securely on to the rail, or use an S-hook to hold it in place.

6 Once the rail is full, fill the gaps beneath by arranging a second selection of plants on the shelf beneath. Try out different combinations of plants and decorative pots until you are happy with the final appearance of your living frame.
