10 Ideas for Living Windows


A million years ago (2009, actually), I did a post on 
How to Accent Windows - let's consider this post the 2014 version. Vintage paned windows are perfect for framing your plant collection for indoor and outdoor appreciation.


Make sure you pull the dead stuff off - that is, of course, if they're dried flowers. If you follow feng shui decorating practices, make sure you keep the energy fresh and the meaning special - don't let the dried plant simply become a dust collector/clutter.
Have a less-than-ideal view? Use the plants as a living wall. They're much better than keeping the blinds down or the curtains closed.


Lucky enough to have a window like this in your washroom? Block your sexy silhouette from the snoopy neighbours by hanging a plant in front of the window. 
Ferns love the humidity from the shower; if your window is facing east, even better!



  
Are indoor plants not your thing? Bring the outside in with a glass wall.


Strangely enough, plants love fluorescent light. Keep a little light above the plant in the evening to give it extra oomph in the dark winter months.
