Want to add a hanging plant stand to your home? Here are the best hanging plant stands!
House plants are kind of like Pringles -once you have one, you just can’t stop.
I personally found myself going from a houseplant or two to a large collection in just one season.
One of the best ways to display houseplants in on a plant stand. This also allows you to cram a lot of plants into that perfectly sunny corner!
Another great way to fit plants into your home decor is by hanging them from the ceiling, a hook, or a bar.
If you can combine a plant stand with a hanging mechanism – that’s it, you’ve hit the jackpot!
Today we are going to share some of our very favorite hanging plant stands!
Factors to Consider When Choosing Hanging Plant Stands
Here are some important factors to consider when choosing a hanging plant stand for your room.
Space and Placement
I am terrible about measuring before I order, but it is super important to consider your available space before ordering.
You want to of course be sure that your stand will fit in your room. But, also pay attention to windows and light sources. You don’t want a plant stand that will fall totally below a window or out of light’s reach!
Finally, double check the depth. Some of these stands can be pretty deep, which can become intrusive in a small space.
Material and Durability
Hanging plant stands come in a ton of different materials, including metal, wood, and rope. Consider where you will use it and choose appropriate materials.
If you plan to hang it outdoors or even on a porch, be sure that it is made for outdoor use. Some woods can warp, metals rust, and ropes rot if they get wet.
Style and Aesthetic
As with any accessory you bring into your home, you want to be intentional with your choice to be sure that the plant stands aesthetic style will flow with the overall decor in your room.
For example, macrame plant hangers are very popular and look great with an earthy or boho feeling space. However, if your room is modern or very formal, it might look out of place.
