And the original DIY plant stand will help to give your home extra comfort and harmony.
The role of indoor plants in human life
Many people use potted flowers in room decor. Plants, like nothing else, are able to revive even the most gray interior. But, speaking of indoor flowers, one cannot but mention their beneficial effect on the human body. After all, it has long been believed that some plants have healing properties and have a beneficial effect on the he alth and psychological state of a person. Most indoor flowers are safely used in folk medicine. And there is also an opinion that they are able to cleanse the house of troubles and troubles. Moreover, it has been proventhat plants in pots, even in small quantities, perfectly clean the oxygen in the premises. In nature, there are many types of indoor flowers. Each plant has its own unique qualities. But most people, as is customary, choose flowers based on their appearance. When using flowers in a room's decor, it's important to remember that these living creatures require special attention. The most important thing is lighting and watering. And in order for harmony to reign in the interior, you should use original jardinieres (from the French. Jardiniere - stand, basket, whatnot) for flowers. It is not necessary to buy this element of decor. A DIY flower stand can exceed all expectations.
Interior style and stand
In order to choose the material for the stand, you need to carefully study the style of the interior in the room. In principle, a do-it-yourself flower stand can be made from anything, most importantly, it should look good indoors. It is important to correctly calculate the area that it will occupy, as well as the number of flowers that will be located on it. If there will be a lot of plants, it is better to choose a multi-level option. And if there is only one flower, then in this case the stand must be chosen in a rather elegant form. Stands come in a variety of types. Most often, plastic, iron, wire, vine, wood, thread and unusual items are used for their manufacture. Jardinières can be floor-mounted, suspended, located on window sills and built into the wall. Often they are decorated with decoupage, mosaics or paints. They also combine severalmanufacturing options immediately, for example, combine wood and metal. It is not necessary to have special talents to make the original stand yourself. It is important to approach this matter with a soul.
Floor stands
Floor stands come in a wide variety of designs. They are in the form of ladders, multi-level shelves, in the form of an apartment flower bed, high and low, wide and narrow. Such jardinières are the most common option for any room. They are quite practical, most often such racks are made of strong materials such as wood, metal, plastic. They look good in any interior and perfectly complement any design. In order to get an original flower stand, the floor structure can be made from an unexpected object. In the design of floor jardinieres, a variety of directions are used. Of course, in any flower shop, as well as specialized networks, you can find many options. The advantages of such designs are that they are very practical and convenient. And in order for the flower stand to look favorably, the floor structure should be designed in the general style of the room. The simplest design of a floor stand is a low round piece on a leg. It is very easy to do it yourself. To do this, you need any material that is malleable for work (chipboard, wood, plastic). It is important that the stand is stable, for this the diameter of the base should be approximately 20cm. The length of the leg can be any, depending on the desired height of the jardinière. Using tools, it is necessary to cut grooves forconnection of parts. When attaching them, be sure to use special glue.
Wooden coasters
If the interior is dominated by wooden elements, then the best option would be a wooden flower stand. Although such models of jardinieres bring naturalness and naturalness to any design. They go well with herbal compositions. Wooden flower stands can be floor or hanging, they can be placed on the windowsill, and also partially built into the walls. Speci alty stores often offer coasters made from untreated natural wood. Thanks to this natural appearance, it creates the feeling that a real living tree is growing in the house. The most common wooden coasters are made from boards or special parts. They have a wide variety of forms: shelves, ladders, multifunctional bedside tables. The only place where it is undesirable to have this type of decor is balcony window sills. Excess moisture has a bad effect on the structure of the tree, which can lead to a short service life. One of the simplest options for making such a jardinière is a ladder. To create it, you will need wooden slats, some glue or nails. All details must be fastened with high quality. The whole job takes about an hour. When the main structure is ready, it must be varnished or painted in the desired color. Multi-colored stairs look very interesting.
Windowsill holders
Very often indoor flowers are located on the windowsill. In order to keep the house clean, this is not very practical. Therefore, there are several types of stands on the windowsill. Most often, flat structures are used, made of plastic or varnished wood. But forged products look much more original. Their appearance is the most unusual. They are made for each flower separately, as well as for several pots at once. Stands for flowers on the windowsill are made of metal and have the shape of a long, rectangular box. The advantages of such a jardinière is that it is suitable even for the narrowest window sill. First of all, it is space saving. And a large number of flower pots guarantees the appearance of a heavenly flower garden. In general, it is not necessary to use special decorative coasters on the windowsill. A fashion trend is a wide window sill with flowers, decorated with various trifles: books, records, toys. Absolutely any items that are associated with home and comfort will do. Perhaps, it will not be difficult to come up with a stand on the windowsill on your own. For small pots, a jardinière woven from a vine is perfect. The main structure consists of a rod or dense wire. The rod will be the basis of the product, it must be well attached to the heavy bottom (you can use a round wooden block). Next, it is necessary to attach separate “branches” to it in a chaotic manner and decorate everything with a vine. Each pot must be braided, starting from the bottom. The very first turn must be fixedwire. It remains only to assemble the structure.
Forged jardinières
Indoor flower stand can be made using wrought iron. This option is perhaps one of the most beautiful and unusual. I would like to say right away that such coasters are the most durable and undemanding in care. Such models easily combine strength and openwork lightness. In addition, the forms of execution are very different: consoles, racks, slides, towers, spirals and others. Among all products, I especially want to highlight forged balconies. This chic part of the interior can turn any loggia or balcony into a real paradise flower garden. Forged products can also be used in the design of windows, placed on the walls, look original in the form of flowerpots. Often these jardinières are combined with other materials. Most often, forged coasters are made to order. Product options can be very different: from simple abstraction to figured images and inscriptions. The only disadvantage of such stands is the high cost. This is not to say that such jardinieres are easy to make with your own hands. Indeed, to create such a design, a special metal twisting device is required. First you need a sketch. For consideration, let's take a simple design, consisting of three legs, fastened together in the middle. All three parts must be exactly the same, so you need to take all measurements very carefully. For manufacturing, it is best to use metal of small thickness. From the diameter of the rodsthe elegance of the whole product depends.
High coasters
If there are a lot of flower pots in the room, then the multi-level stand option is best suited. A high flower stand is not only able to save a huge amount of space, but also place a maximum of pots at the same time. High jardinières are most often floor-mounted. For such a product, stability and advantageous placement are important. Usually these coasters are located in the corner of the room. The width used is the most diverse. Forged high jardinières look very original. They complement any interior with elegance and tenderness. Wooden multi-level high racks look very unusual. Most often they are located on balconies and loggias. Their advantage is in a large number of bowls for indoor plants. If the flowers in the house are of the same type, for example, multi-colored violets, then the tall jardinière option is the most suitable. To make such a stand with your own hands, the most successful option is a hanging jardinière. For its manufacture you will need: a rope, a wooden shelf, metal rings, ceramic pots and some tools. The shelf must be cut into several square parts. On each part, apply the diameter of the bottom of the pot (plus a few mm is required) and, using a jigsaw, cut it out. In each corner of the square, you need to make a hole for the rope. The next step is the assembly of the structure. Initially, it is necessary to determine the length of the entire jardinière, as well as the distance between the pots. lace, onwhich the whole structure will be attached, can be decorated to match the interior. With the help of knots, you need to fix all the details on the rope, and the jardinière is ready.
Glass coasters
If the room is filled with furniture to the maximum, then there is simply no better option than glass flower stands. The transparent design is able to withstand large pots, while absolutely not loading the interior with massiveness. Glasses for such jardinieres have many colors. Transparent glasses make the stand weightless, and, for example, black glass emphasizes the geometry of the product itself. Such racks are always made in combination with other materials: plastic, wood, forging. Designs placed in the window opening look good. It is best to use small pots with flowering plants. Well, for making such a jardinière with your own hands, the simplest design is shelves. For work, you will need several sheets of building glass (preferably 6 mm), guides and supports. In the slopes, it is necessary to make several holes and fix the structure. The whole job takes a little over an hour, and the effect is simply amazing!
Outdoor flower stands
Increasingly, indoor plants are used to decorate summer cafes or just streets. This is done for several reasons: the impossibility of planting the plant in the ground, the method of interior decoration and aesthetic value. Unfortunately, not all stores can find such an accessory. But him withcan easily be made to order. The most practical material for manufacturing is iron. It is most durable in such conditions of stay as the street. But other materials are also used for manufacturing. Stone jardinieres look very original. Flower girls for the streets are divided into two categories: stationary and portable. Such decorations of the landscape will not leave anyone indifferent.
DIY Coasters
Jardinieres for flowers - an interior detail with which you can safely experiment. A handmade stand will help to give the room an unusual look. To make such a design, it is not necessary to be a master, the most important thing is to approach work with imagination. What the rack will be made of depends only on its owner. The more unexpected the base of the product, the more likely it is that the flower stand, made with your own hands, will turn out to be original and unique. The jardinière should bear the character not only of the premises, but also of its owner. Then the result will be just amazing. DIY flower stand is easy!
