Indoor GREENERY

Tips for adding greenery to every room of the house

-

“A wreath can really be enjoyed anywhere indoors,” says Elena. “We encourage folks to be creative, so don’t hesitate to add accents to your pieces too, like ornaments and flowers.”

KITCHEN

Since for functional­ity you need your kitchen décor out of the way, it’s best to have your greenery up high, such as hanging a wreath on a window or cabinet door. For garlands, lay them across open shelving, framing the kitchen windows or even on top of your kitchen cabinets.

BEDROOM

You can never go wrong with a garland on the headboard. Fill it with string lights for magical lighting at night. Or put a small live tree in the corner or on top of your dresser.

LIVING ROOM

The quintessen­tial place for a garland is, of course, the fireplace mantel. But you can also hang a wreath there too, or in any nearby windows.

BATHROOM

Have space on the counter? Try pairing a miniature tree with your soap dispenser for a touch of holiday spirit. You could also hang a garland from any nonseasona­l art pieces you have on the wall.

DINING ROOM

Hang a small wreath from each of your dining chairs for a pop of color. A fresh garland paired with candlestic­ks will make a beautiful centerpiec­e for your table.
