Perhaps, this question was asked by each hostess. Today there is a huge assortment of all kinds of decorative forms, supports, holders and supports. The only problem is that truly beautiful accessories are expensive and not everyone can afford them. And the fact that you can afford it is not always pleasing to the eye.
Another advantage of the products “hand made” - they can be made the right size. If a small corner between the sofa and the chair remains for the flower stand, or a fragment of the wall near the cabinet is ideal for a shelf, then by carefully measuring the space, you can create a neat and very practical interior detail.
Moreover, today you can purchase various accessories, elements of decor and fasteners, so that the thing was beautiful and as functional as possible.
Types of stands for plants
Stands can be wall, floor, made of wood, metal, and even unusual materials at hand.
As an option - wall model made of wood and metal. Wooden shelves are attached to the decorative metal frame. Their number may be different. The stand is very functional, as it allows you to place flowers in a room of modest size.

Choosing the right part correctly, you just need to attach the wooden stands for the pots and the base. This is also done by a screwdriver.
Flower stand on the windowsill do it yourself
Still, the main location of flowers in a house or apartment is a window sill. First, because it is the brightest place, and, as is known, there is no life without the light. Secondly, due to space saving. If you can still put and hang something in a corner or on a wall, then the window sill, as a rule, remains a free zone.
And in order not to be content with just the length of the window sill, an elegant way of arranging flowers was invented. This is a classic shelf. They can be made of different materials:
