Known to alleviate anxiety and lend a little color to anywhere they're used, plants are a surefire way to enhance and liven up your home. Whether you like to get in touch with nature through a well-tended garden or prefer to place a splash of greenery in a wall planter somewhere within your house, natural elements are a great addition to any house. The best part about the simple concept of a wall-mounted plant is that you don't need to be a professional gardener (or have a ton of space) to take care of the flora and fauna that often reside inside—as long as you do your research, that is. While many plants do need a some amount of sunlight, there are a number of houseplants that can prosper in any kind of light, making them an ideal choice for a planter placed on the wall of an outside patio or even inside your home.

Ranging in size, shape, material, and price, there's a perfect wall planter out there for everyone, and that's true no matter what kind of home they have or what their design aesthetic may be. If you prefer more minimalist décor, consider adding a chic white-and-copper planter to your living room for a simplistic look. Do you want to bring more statement-making touches to your space? We found a set of house-shaped galvanized metal wall planters that are guaranteed to pop. If the rest of your decorations are more vintage-inspired, you'll likely gravitate towards a rustic metal wall planter—it was created to be rust-free, ensuring that your plants and their holder look fresh long after they've first taken root. Or, if you prefer to craft, we even have an idea for a DIY wall planter you can make in afternoon.

From the industrial to the artful, explore the many different wall planters you can use to a little something extra to your space, whether you display them indoors or outdoors.
