Ever walk into a room and feel like something's off? Sometimes, even beautiful rooms can feel a little…messy. Guess what? It might be your plants! Plants are awesome, but if they don't match your room's style, they can make things look a bit odd. So, are your plants helping or hurting your room's look? Take our fun quiz to see if your plants are a good fit, and learn how to make them look amazing with your decorations!
Discover Your Plant Style: The Super-Fun Quiz!
What does your room say about you? Do you like things cozy and warm? Super simple? Or bright and bold? Let's find out what your favorite style is!
What's Your Room's Vibe?
Before we pick plants, let's figure out your style. Answer these questions honestly:
- What colors are in your living room? (Like white, gray, brown; bright colors like red, blue, yellow; nature colors like green and brown; or soft colors like pink and light blue?)
- What are your main things made of? (Like wood, metal, glass, or soft materials like blankets and pillows?)
- What words describe your dream room? (Like peaceful, exciting, comfy, or modern?)
- What era inspires you? (Like the super-modern 1950s, old-fashioned times, a free-spirited style, or a clean, simple look?)
Your answers will reveal if your style is Boho (free and colorful), Minimalist (super simple), Scandinavian (clean and bright), or Maximalist (lots of everything!). Mid-Century Modern (from the 1950s and 60s), or something else!
Are Your Plants Confused About Your Style?
Now, think about your plants. Are they big and leafy, or small and neat? Are they in plain pots or fancy, colorful ones? If your room is super simple, but you have a huge fern in a bright red pot, your styles might be clashing!
