Hello out there, all you wild and woolly pockateers! My name is Erin Williamson, and I run a little blog called Design Crisis along with my bff Karly Hand. Most of the time I write about interiors, but I’m pretty stoked to write a post about green things for Woolly Pockets because I love the idea of bringing the great outdoors inside. Sometimes all you need to finish a room is a fat fluffy palm or fiddle fig in the corner, but I’m also interested in rooms that put plants front and center stage. We could all stand to breathe a little easier, right? So relax and inhale deeply while I take you on a tour of some indoor spaces that incorporate flora in super radical ways.
Now, I know that most of us aren’t fortunate enough to have skyscraper ceilings, trees growing through our homes (please don’t cut a hole in your roof unless you really know what you’re doing!), or grassy tents from outer space, but indoor gardening can be accessible to almost everyone.
Vertical gardening takes front and center stage in these sweet rooms. Just think — you could snag a few Woolly Pockets and turn your own home into paradise.

If I may offer a word to the wise, though: indoor gardening can be addictive, but don’t let your green thumb totally take over.
Well, kids, that’s it for my guest stint at WP headquarters. Thanks so much for having me — I had a blast!
Now I hope you’ll scoot on over to Design Crisis, where we’re giving away a free Woolly Pocket. Our lucky winner can get started on their own special indoor garden pronto, thanks to the nice people at Woolly Pockets. Hooray!
I’m so going to buy a sh*t ton of wallys!
I LOVE these ideas! I want to live in all of them
What a gorgeous, glorious post Erin and an amazing round-up of images. I think a bit of green takes any room to the next level! Even vertical. ;0)
p.s.-thanks for the mention girl!
The tree in the middle of the house brings back memories of your house hunting post. Remember that funky tree growing in the middle of the kitchen and Ike and Karly wouldn’t stay in the house?
These are soooo much better. If only you could find one in Austin that you could snatch up.
Connie, I totally had that house in mind when I wrote this post… too bad that house didn’t look more like this one!
And thanks guys for the nice words
Hope you all whip out your wallets and buy some wallys for your wallsies!
I want all of those!! Especially the JPG room!!
