This window plant shelf is super simple… If you don’t already have a wide window sill to place your plants on, have a board cut to fit the sill and attach with small nails. (If you love these tropical indoor plants, check out our post on Hardy Outdoor Tropical Plants over at TGG!) You can find similar shelves to make your own floating plant shelf here at Amazon. There is a small air plant sitting on the shelf as well, along with a glass vase I use to propagate cuttings. Here we have a spiderwort, prayer plant, a snake plant and a pothos. Make sure you anchor it into the wall though, plants can be very heavy, especially when they are freshly watered.

We made a floating plant shelf from the ones you can buy at Ikea for less than $10.

Bottom Row – Rhipsalis, Schefflera (umbrella plant)įind out where to buy these plants at the bottom of the post!.

Third row- Tillandsia, Pilea peperomioides (Chinese money plant).

Second Row- English ivy, maidenhair fern, Tillandsia.

Top of plant shelf – Pothos, baby Boston fern, heart leaf Philodendron BSNL Clearing Jungle Including Uprooting Of Rank Vegetation, Grass, Brush Wood, Trees And Saplings Of Girth Up To 30 Cm Measured At A Height Of 1 M Above Ground Level And Removal Of Rubbish Up To A Distance Of 50M Outside The Periphery Of The Area Cleared.

Wondering what these plants are? From left to right, starting at the top… Then we used it to display some of our fav houseplants! This Ikea plant shelf idea also makes a major design impact… When you open the front door of our small condo, the first thing you see is this plant shelf, filtering the light and the view, and filled with bright, healthy green plants! Remember the trick about turning the shelf away from the wall… it allows so much more light to reach the plants, resulting in happier, healthier and prettier plant pets! We used an Ikea Expedit bookcase and turned it 90 degrees away from the wall to allow light in from both sides.

We love our plants so much that they truly have become part of our family, like pets! And we use them in our decor, because what is better than a living plant in any, and every room! And if one is good… well at the moment, we have over 50 indoor plants in a 700 square foot condo. So these first few plant shelf ideas are from our very own home.
