If you don't have a garden, you can create one in your own flat. All you need are a few pots and a coat rack. Set beautiful accents with filigree hanging baskets.

This DIY project is so simple to make that even DIYers with no talent whatsoever will manage to have their own vertical garden in the flat. All you need is a coat rack, a few normal and hanging flower pots and two or three hanging baskets. Difficulty level: easy as pie.

You'll need:

A coat rack

... new or old, it doesn't matter. It just needs to be wide and sturdy enough to carry your little garden.

A few flower pots

The right mix sets the style: play around with flowerpot sizes and different materials. If you value your wooden floor, don't forget the saucers!

Stylish focal points

Light up your creativity: a few hanging lights here and there add atmosphere. Filament bulbs are particularly eye-catching. Note: make sure there is enough space between the plants and the lamps. Choose LED bulbs that do not give off heat.

Multiplug and fixing equipment

If you want to install hanging lights in your indoor garden, you need to think about the power supply for them. As power strips aren't exactly aesthetically pleasing, we've attached it to the back of the coat stand's base.

When I’m not busy putting together home décor themes or planning marketing activities for Galaxus, I enjoy decorating my home with things I love and starting DIY projects I finish all too rarely. The inspiration I get comes from blogs, magazines and travels. My favourite home living styles: Nautical, Scandinavian and Nordic.
