Is your space feeling a little flat or uninspired? Don’t panic, it might just need a touch more life. And by life, we mean plants. 

At Braid & Wood, we believe in the power of greenery paired with good design to transform any room. 

In this post, we’re sharing home decor tips that not only breathe fresh energy into your space but also spotlight four of our favorite plant-forward styling pieces: the Nested Plant Stand, the Arches Plant Stand, the V-Hanger, and the Plant Shelf. 

Tip #1: Use Statement Plants

One of the easiest and most impactful ways to decorate is by adding a statement plant or two. Not only do plants bring natural texture, vibrant color, and a sense of calm, but they also have a unique way of transforming a room from basic to intentional.

Tip #2: Fill Visual Emptiness & Create A Room That Looks More Put Together 

That awkward, empty corner in your home? It’s actually full of potential. 

Adding a plant and a modern stand, like Arches Plant Stand instantly transforms a forgotten space into a design moment. 

Corners tend to collect visual emptiness, which can make a room feel unfinished or off-balance.

But when you introduce height, greenery, and sculptural form to that empty space, you create dimension, softness, and a sense of completion. 

Tip #3: Walls Don’t Always Need Framed Photos

Blank walls can be some of the trickiest spots to style but they’re also the biggest opportunity. 

Instead of always defaulting to framed artwork, consider filling that space with something more dimensional, like the V-Hanger Trio. 

Hung in an organic, asymmetrical arrangement, the trio brings soft movement and sculptural interest to the wall, instantly making the room feel more curated and alive. 

The mix of natural materials, geometric form, and living greenery adds depth and texture that traditional wall art just can’t match. 

It’s an easy way to break up the flatness of a large wall and turn it into a focal point that feels fresh, modern, and full of life.

Tip # 4: You Don’t Need A Huge Decorating Overall

Sometimes, less really is more. You don’t need a full gallery wall or an elaborate design plan to make a space feel elevated.

A few well-placed pieces, like a Plant Shelf Duo or a thoughtfully hung V-Hanger, can shift the entire energy of a room. 

Strategic placement, clean lines, and intentional design go a long way. By keeping your wall decor simple and minimal, you allow each piece to shine while creating a sense of balance and calm. 

It’s proof that even small changes can make a big visual impact and you don’t have to overhaul your whole home to get there.

Final Thoughts: Simple Changes Make A Big Impact

Bringing more life into your home doesn’t have to mean a full renovation; it can be as simple as adding a sculptural plant stand to an empty corner or styling a blank wall with pieces that offer both beauty and function. 

With designs like the Nested and Arches Plant Stands, the V-Hanger, and the Plant Shelf, you can turn everyday spaces into thoughtful design moments. 

Whether you’re going for bold and eye-catching or soft and minimal, these pieces help you create a home that feels more vibrant, more intentional, and unmistakably you. Small updates, big transformation, that’s the magic of styling with plants!
