The Ultimate Guide to Styling Artificial Plants in Your Home

Artificial plants are a fantastic way to bring life & beauty into your home without the maintenance of live greenery. At The Home Quarter, we love how these versatile décor pieces can instantly elevate any space.

Whether you’re looking to add a pop of greenery to a minimalist room or create a lush, layered look, here’s how to style your artificial plants like a pro.

1. Choose the Right Pot or Planter
   Your planter is just as important as the plant itself. Consider your room’s aesthetic when selecting a pot or basket. For a modern space, go for clean lines & neutral tones, while woven baskets or ceramic pots are perfect for a more natural or rustic look.

2. Find the Perfect Spot
   Artificial plants work well in areas where real plants might struggle, such as low-light corners or spaces with fluctuating temperatures. Place a taller artificial tree like our faux olive or fiddle leaf fig in a bare corner to add height, or style smaller stems on shelves or side tables for subtle texture.

3. Layer with Complementary Decor
   To create a cohesive look, pair your artificial plants with other décor elements. Surround a potted plant with books, candles, or a decorative tray to build a styled vignette. For larger plants, anchor the area with a statement rug or wall art.

4. Add Movement to the Space
   Artificial plants can make a space feel stagnant if not styled thoughtfully. To create a sense of movement & flow, position plants at varying heights or along natural sightlines, like next to windows, mirrors, or furniture. This creates an organic feel that mirrors how plants grow in nature.

5. Keep It Real
   A little trickery goes a long way! Add a layer of real bark, soil, or moss, to the base of your artificial plant to give it an authentic appearance. Nobody will guess your greenery is faux.

Artificial plants are perfect for busy homeowners or anyone without a green thumb. They stay lush & vibrant all year round, require zero watering, & are easy to move around when redecorating.
