Creating Planters for Houseplants

Hi, this is Yolanda Vanveen on behalf of Expert Village. In this series we're learning all about how to make your house plants stylish. Containers are the most important part of your house plant. The fact that you are going to see and it's an easy way to add style to your house plant. There are a lot of planters that you can select from; they all can add style to your house. This ceramic container right here I love it because it just has a lot of style to it, it's very simple too. I think style should be simple it shouldn't be to obnoxious and it has a great color and I got a great texture. Anything that appeals to the eye and the touch is going to add style to the garden. Anything that appeals to you by colors, texture or touch, it's going to make a great house plant container. There are a lot of containers that are not really specific designed for house plants that you can use for a house plant. For example I find that vases many times make incredible planters and this is just a gorgeous pink vase. To put a plant in there I would just take these plants out, add a bunch of gravel on the bottom and just set a plant right inside. It will cascade over and make a beautiful container.
