Step out of the norm and think above and beyond with these unique plant ceiling ideas that will greenify your home like nothing else!
When it comes to decorating with plants, we usually think about adding green touches to our living rooms, bedrooms, balconies, and even bathrooms. However, we often overlook one creative space—the ceiling. Hanging plants from the ceiling isn’t just a stunning decor choice—it also frees up valuable floor space. To inspire you to look up and transform your overhead spaces, here are some unique ideas for ceiling plant displays!
Unique Plant Ceiling Ideas
1. Macrame Plant Holders on the Ceiling
Starting off with something artistic yet contemporary, macrame plant holders are extremely versatile. Not only can you display your plants in a variety of spots, including hanging them from the ceiling on dowels while saving up on-floor space, but it also makes for an extraordinarily beautiful display.
2. Vine on a Ladder Over Your Dinner Space!
Add some dining table decor, not on the table itself but above it! Choose a wooden ladder or even a plank of wood with horizontal planks supporting it as you wrap your favorite vines around. You can even adorn it with light fixtures for a delightful dinner every night!
3. Hanging Wood Frame For Plants
Hang a big enough wooden frame on the ceiling of your living room to create an amazing display of your favorite plants. Choose from among evergreen plant species and variegated, colorful ones for more visual appeal.
4. Mimimalistic Bohemian Planters On Curtain Rods
Gear up for your next DIY project for the weekend, making a few simple yet sophisticated macrame planters to create a green corner either in your drawing room or beside your reading nook, hanging them up on the ceiling on hooks.
5. A Web of Vines on the Ceiling
If you have no way of growing your plants from the ceiling or do not want to invest in hanging planters, we have a display idea for you, too. Grow your favorite trailing plants on high shelves and provide them enough support to trail up and cover your ceiling like a thin canopy.
6. Create a False Green Ceiling With a Wire Frame Trellis
Create interesting interior decor by creating a false ceiling. It is not even expensive. All you need is a wire frame trellis. Attach it to your ceiling, and let your plants do their job of totally transforming the look of your space!
7. Adorn Your Bathroom Ceiling With A Wooden Planter
Now that you know of the best ways to adorn your living space, why forget the bathroom? Amp up your bathroom decor with a hanging planter made of wood, and grow your favorite plants right over your bathtub.
8. Create an Interesting Hanging Planter Display on the Ceiling
If you want to grow a few varieties of the same plant together or even different plants for contrast, choose a little ladder that has been lying around too long in your store room and turn it into a ceiling planter!
9. Decorate the Ceiling Of Your Plant Room
There are many ways to decorate your plant corner or plant room, and one of the best in ceiling decor with planters. This saves a lot of floor space, especially if you are growing many plants.
10. House Plants in Hanging Light Fixtures
While this ceiling decor idea is similar to the chandelier idea, it is also different. You can either outsource a light fixture like this or create your own DIY one with a mental frame and glass holders for the bulbs and your plants.
11. Make a Wooden Trellis Like a Canopy Overhead
While it is common to see trellises on the balcony or even inside the house, the unique part about this trellis is that it acts like a false ceiling, and that makes it stand out! You can either plant a vining plant on a high shelf and let its stems trail all over the trellis or hang individual planters from it.
12. Let the Vines fill Your Living Room Ceiling!
Similar to the idea of letting your vining plants creep up the ceiling, this idea involves only one plant. Choose a vining plant with a vigorous growth habit and let it send out individual vines that can creep around your living room ceiling.
13. Ceiling Plant Decor By The Window
One of the easier decor ideas for plants planted near the ceiling, this decor idea involves creating a holder out of sturdy twine or rope and housing your plant in a hanging planter supported by the rope holder near a window.
14. Add Plants to Wooden Frames of Modern Chandeliers
Whether you want to invest in a fancy, modern wooden chandelier or build one of your own, you can really make it stand out by using modern light fixtures and, most importantly, by adding plants to it!
15. Create an Assortment of Plants Up Above
If you are not really on board with the vining plant ideas on the ceiling, we have something for you, too! Pick individual plants to hang from your ceiling via hooks and create your personalized canopy on your living room ceiling.
16. Let a Single Vine Take Center Stage!
No decor idea has to be too elaborate to be beautiful, and this one just proves it. Pick a corner of the room that would look great with a hanging planter, house your plant from the ceiling, and provide support for its trailing tendrils to create a unique aesthetic.
