Love Your Space Challenge #4
Add fresh air!
Option 1: Bring fresh air into your living space by adding a potted plant. If you have allergies, consider using a Parsley, Thyme, Swedish Ivy, or Peperomia plant and stay away from Fig plants.
Option 2: If you prefer a little more color, add a few flower stems to a pretty vase.
Option 3: Clip some budding branches or evergreen sprigs from your yard to bring the outside in.
My Outcome: I found a cute planter with birds sitting on a branch.
I hope I see you tomorrow! Remember to post pics or leave me a comment and tell me about your projects. I love talking decor. 😉
Your home is lovely. I’m going to try and do some of your suggestions. Thanks so much.
Thanks Tiff, I would love to hear about the ones you try!
This is the first type of challenge I have seen like this and I like it. So different and a great way to start actually sprucing up the place where you live.
What a sweet compliment Kita! I’m trying to make them simple and easy enough to actually get done but still want them to have an impact on the space.
LOVE! With how freezing it is outside today these pictures just make me feel all warm and sunny like Springtime! I love them all so much and I’d gladly take a house styled any way like this 🙂 I especially love option 1 and 2! What a warm post 🙂
Thanks Jenn! It is nice to have a bright, sunny space when it’s soooo cold outside!!
I love when nature is a part of indoor spaces. These ideas are fantastic! I love the greenery 🙂
Thanks Rachel! I love having nature and nature inspired decor in my home too!
Hey this is actually do-able for me…I’m in…with a potted herb plant I’m thinking!
Yay! I am trying to post “doable” challenges, lol Have fun!
What a fun challenge… I look forward to playing along and seeing the next posts!!
Great Lori, would love to hear about any of the projects you do!
Right now I am completely redoing my office! I just bought an iMac so I want an equally pretty space to match. 🙂
Awesome! I hope you post pics of your office when it’s completed. 😉
I am absolutely loving your challenge! Very great tips.
I’m so glad Michelle! Me too.
Great post! love the ideas. The potted plant is the perfect touch 🙂 I’m currently working on redoing a master bedroom. Definitely going to take some of your suggestions!
Awesome! Can’t wait to see what you do.
