Freshen up with Plants!

So many new plants in shop! Time for a pre-spring home refresh?

We are over the moon with houseplants! I think this long, gray northwest winter has really stoked our desire (need?) to bring the outdoors in. We're decorating our own homes with a variety of beautiful, fresh foliage so, of course we wanted to bring all kinds of gorgeous greenery into our shop! Choose among the huge variety of plants of all sizes. Pair a tiny plant with a pretty new pot for a perfect little hostess gift. Pop a larger plant into a basket for a nice contrast of texture. It's amazing how this simple touch can really give a fresh update to any decor!
