Hello, DIYers!
There’s something so magical about trailing plants! Many plants, including popular(and low maintenance) pothos and philodendrons grow long vines with leaves that can travel up walls, cascade from their pots, and create stunning displays in and outside of your home. If you’ve got trailing plants and you’re interested in making the most of their beauty, give these ideas a try!
Happy crafting!
