Friday I decided to build this book/plant shelf. Liking it more than expected. Not sure how much light the plants in the middle of the shelf will get. In that situation that you find a really cute spot for the plant but… does it get optimal light🤷🏼‍♀️  
Also taking suggestions for a 3rd plant for the very top left.

You could perhaps try sticking an overhead grow light under the tops of each shelf if you’re worried about some of the plants farthest from the window lacking the proper sunlight. The corner looks great! Great job! 👏😊

I was just thinking today that I need more grow lights. And thank you!

Beautiful setup, a big trailing Mican would look beautiful on top!
