    love this! I'm the maximalist with a minimalist heart. organized and lots for me :) my plants are spread out in multiple areas of my home. really enjoying them, even the struggles are worth it. you could totally put a grow bulb in the monkey light! just saying!

    Everyone appreciate plants and the wilderness natural environment but nobody appreciate God who created all this wonderful things for us. People are too ''proud' to acknowledge it and are simply self centred and unappreciated . God created all this beauty in abundance and GOd is creative, meaning he created the environment to be all different , different insects, plants , trees, and even humans we are and the environment everything is unique . When God finished creating the Earth and the Universe, he said '' it is good'' ,!!! and should say to God '' good it is '' !! and thank you.

    love all of the approaches 😍 your plants are gorgeous. As i inderstood, you live in area with lots of natural light? I don't have many plants but i already struggle with additional growing lights, all the wires and lamps :(

    • @alexdesignsstuff
      @alexdesignsstuff  Před rokem +1

      Thank you! I do generally get lots of light in my living room, library and dining room but there are other areas of the house where I don’t have much light and have had to use a grow light. I’m currently experimenting with how to get the most out of them while also hiding all the wires, but it’s definitely a challenge!

  • @lose999
    @lose999 Před rokem

    New to your channel as of today! My place doesn't get a lot of light so I use the under cabinet light in my kitchen for some of my plants. I have many low light plants: ZZ plant, snake plant, etc. because I only have two East facing windows.
    I love your windows. The architecture in your home looks great. Is it a craftsman style home?

    • @alexdesignsstuff

    I have an issue buying colorful pots. I started out on buying white and soon gave into different colors. My problem is I love pots as much as i do plants. Ugg , I may need to reconsider my weakness to pots. In my defense they are mostly all shades of the same colors, bluish grey.

    • @alexdesignsstuff
      @alexdesignsstuff  Před rokem +1

      Hi theemeraldcity, thanks for your comment! If your pots are all shades of the same color I think they’d work great together. I’m currently working on a plant shelf video where I’m going to explore combining different colored pots. I’ll test some different combos out and share the results soon.

      Thanks Heather! The monkey lamp I found on Walmart's website. It was a hardwire fixture so I also found a lamp conversion kit on Amazon. I added both links to the description. Looks like the lamp is currently out of stock unfortunately, but if you search Walmart's website they might have other similar ones from other manufacturers. Hope this helps!
