Easy Decor Tips For Any Apartment

Adding color into your home is a lot harder than it seems. If you’re anything like us it’s easy to

gravitate towards “safe” colors; the greys, whites and black with maybe some navy blue or burgundy thrown in. Well here is an easy way to add color, and you don’t have to commit to huge pieces of furniture, paint jobs, throw pillows with designs, or anything that might make you feel unsure about the ambiance of your home.

Plants! They are easy, relatively cheap, and will make your apartment feel more fresh and alive. Here are three options that you can either pair together to create a beautiful display or simply leave on their own in different places around the house to create a more subtle effect.

                                   

Echeveria plant - This plant looks similar to a cactus, but without the pokey needles. It comes in many different sizes and actually requires less water than regular house plants. You can buy this plant in packs of three at any local grocery store or home improvement store. http://www.homedepot.com/p/Unbranded-9-cm-Echeveria-Plant-3-Pack-0881005/202363178
