Free Ways To Use Nature To Decorate
If you're working toward designing a simple life and a more natural, sustainable home, you must bring nature inside. Not only is nature the best decorator, she provides it for free!
Plants, flowers, branches, wood slices, driftwood, rocks, dried herbs, botanical prints, and reclaimed wood pieces all make for lovely decor and help keep us grounded and connected with the Earth. We feel less stressed and are reminded to breathe deeply and just enjoy being. Natural elements connect us with an innate sense of harmony and well-being. The organic appeal of earth's elements is welcoming to all who enter a space. What better (and more sustainable) way to decorate your home and live a little more simply?
