Help for an empty corner

10 years ago

This corner looks great with the Christmas tree there but what about the rest of the year. Any ideas appreciated! Thanks

    I like the plant you have there now; maybe add some art above it, a couple of smallish (not too small) pictures stacked? Or perhaps a taller plant to add the vertical element?

    i think a plant there looks nice-- the one you have looks like it should be repotted tho- the pot looks too small, even if the plant is fake :) a small table or plantstand with a plant on top would look nice too and give more ht ...

    Do you have matching panels for that window? If so, I'd add them, then a couple of smaller pieces of art above your plant to add height. Oh, and a bigger pot or basket (or maybe a stand) for the plant. Pull him out of the corner a bit, too :)

    I like the plant, but I'd vote for a taller one.

    I love your colors and think that the corner looks good. I would turn off that overhead light and use a lamp on the end table.

    Agree with others who've suggested a plant stand for your existing plant or find a taller plant in order to fill more of the blank space in the corner.

    From what I can see of it, looks like a pretty room, btw!

    Imo, each of the side walls needs something. Wall candle sconces, art, or arcitectural pieces, would help fill up the corner. The plant is fine unless you want to purchase something larger, such as a Ficus tree, which would be all you need.

    I'm with Patty, the walls need some art. I have a lot of calendar art in my home. I buy a cool wall calendar, and then the following year I can frame the pics I like for the wall. They sell frames that fit calendar art at most of the places like Michaels or Hobby Lobby, etc. Just a thought as a way to get some inexpensive art.

    Thank you all for suggestions! I might look for a larger plant, i.e. Ficus, to fill the spot. That would be sort of portable, too. Thank you for the kind comments about the room. It was a struggle!!

    I would have a torchiere lamp there.

    What would you think
    Of a hanging basket above the plant?

    I would put a fuller plant or maybe two smaller plants to sit on each side of the tall one. No to the ceiling plant and do you have curtain panels for that window? I think panels would warm it up and make it feel more finished. A large area rug would also change the feel of the corner, even though it wouldn't be in the corner.

    Torchiere would be my choice, also.

    i was also wondering why you had panels on one window and not both of them... is it because of the baseboards?? ( i've never had baseboard heaters- why would they matter?)

    i wouldn't want a hanging plant indoors- especially over hardwood floors- they are messy to water...
