# Hi! I’m new to the group. So excited to be here. Haven’t had house…

_Posted by Gaileen Joy on 2025-03-05_

Hi! I’m new to the group. So excited to be here.  
Haven’t had house plants since the 70s. But jumping back in with both feet. 😂

Our house was built in 1905 but has great light. I’ve just been setting plants with similar needs into little vignettes. Definitely a work in progress. LOL! But here are a few photos. If you see something that looks like it is in the wrong place, I’m definitely open to suggestions!

(These are just a few. I’m just having SO much fun with plants again!!)

Looking great! Have fun!

### Aria commented on 2025-03-05

Looks great! I’m jealous of all the natural light you get 😅

### Adrian commented on 2025-03-05

Love all the cute lil plant corners you’ve set up already 😊 I wouldn’t change anything in my opinion. Really cute already. Definitely agreeing with Aria on envying all your natural light. Thought I’d share this windowsill shelving unit I got for my plants if your windowsills are anything like mine and a little too short to house a houseplant.

It’s called the “Sumerflos 3-Tier Acrylic Window Plant Shelves” on Amazon. Really came in handy for me last summer when my jade plant outgrew our windowsills. Thought I’d share it for anyone interested in it. It takes a little assembly, but it holds a fair amount of weight, they have other versions with different numbers of tiers, and the shelves are adjustable in height, which makes it really nice if I want to make room for a taller plant.

Oh my gosh!! I love it ! Thank you so much for the idea. I’m heading to Amazon….. ❤️🥰🥰👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

#### Adrian replied on 2025-03-06

No problem! They’ve really come in handy to save space throughout my house without needing a lot of plant stands to display them. (I appreciate them keeping my plants safe from my dog bumping into them too 😉)

#### Gaileen Joy replied on 2025-03-06

I’m really excited about that! ❤️
