Corners are tough spaces. Many times, they are awkwardly placed between doorways or windows, making them impossible to fill with furniture. If they’re too dark or too bright, a plant won’t survive. If they’re too shallow, shelves aren’t an option. You probably have a particular corner in mind right now. The solution to the dilemma is extremely simple. Get yourself a floor vase. They come in many different shapes and sizes so you won’t have any trouble picking one out. Suddenly you have a way to fill that awkward empty corner without breaking a nail. Here are 10 ways to fill empty corners with floor vases.

Houseplants are almost everyone’s solution to an empty space, but when your corner is too dark, you probably won’t get it to survive. However, you can put a large leafy branch in a floor vase and you’ll get the illusion of a tree for as long as the greenery lasts.

Of course you don’t have to have a giant branch to make a giant impact. A smaller leafy branch will do just as well! Choose something with flowers if possible to give your corner a bit of color and cheer. (via SF Girl By Bay)

Maybe you’re a huge fan of floor vases and have several stashed away in your decorating storage. You now have permission to bring them out and display them all at once. Line them up on shelves or along an empty wall or gather them together in a corner. Collections always look nice and polished.

If you really want to break the rules, don’t let your floor vases just sit on the floor. Hoist them up on your entryway table or hallway shelf instead. You might like the higher greenery even better than corner filler.
