Artificial plants are absolutely stunning additions to any home, but did you know that they don’t just have to be a tabletop feature? Artificial plants can become a part of your gallery wall. Whether you have created one already and want to spruce it up, or starting one as your next DIY project, here are some ways silk plants can be featured within your arrangement.
If you aren’t already familiar with what a gallery wall is, it is a collection of artwork, photographs, or other novelty items displayed on a wall in a curated fashion. There are many ways you can go about creating this wall, such as through colour cohesion, visual form, or choosing a theme. Regardless of how you design it, this will be focused on how you can incorporate greenery into your gallery wall, to create a distinct texture and depth.
- Use Hanging Plants
Hanging plants are the most common way to add greenery to your gallery wall. Whether it’s an ivy or vine, the leaves cascading downwards will provide wonderful shape and dimension to the arrangement. Either screw a hook into your wall, or use an adhesive one to hang your plant onto and viola, your hanging plant is incorporated into your gallery wall!
- Add Potted Plants
If your gallery wall features a floating shelf, or your desired wall has one, then you can simply add potted plants across the floating shelf to add a dash of greenery to your display. This is particularly good if you want to use the potted plants you have already have in your home rather than getting hanging plants.
- Frame Your Foliage
Fancy a bit of DIY creating your gallery wall? Why not try framing your artificial plant stems. All you need is a box picture frame large enough for your stems, artificial or real flowers and foliage, glue, pliers, and a hook for your frame.
Simply trim your chosen flowers and foliage and position them inside the frame to your liking. If you want to ensure the foliage stays in place, then put glue on the back of the stems. Then you simply hang them! Framing your foliage allows you to get a bit more creative with your gallery wall and the way your plants are positioned.
- Use Beautiful Garlands
If you want a touch of greenery that won’t take up space on your gallery wall, then you can’t go wrong with an artificial garland. Simply hang this across the frames and hooks you already have on your gallery wall for an easy way to add foliage to your existing set-up. This is a particularly good option if you’re short on space or don’t want to break up your aesthetic too much.
- Add An Artificial Greenery Wall
For a real pop of green, an artificial greenery wall will be an eye-catching statement on your gallery wall. You can choose from a variety of sizes depending on how much space you want it to take up.
You may want to decorate your green wall, such as securing flowers across it using floral wires. Or you can place it beneath any hanging photo frames or objects you have on your gallery wall for some added layering. Regardless of how you approach the greenery wall, it is perfect for making a natural statement on your gallery wall.
Add A Touch Of Greenery To Your Gallery Wall
Whether you already have a gallery wall, or just starting out on one, bringing artificial plants into your arrangement is a stylish choice. It is a great way to bring texture, depth and a natural element to your vignette in a way that is truly timeless.
