Shower Caddies That Double as Plant Displays
The right caddy = half function, half design. Choose one that drains well and looks good against tile.

💡 Tip: look for caddies on Amazon made from stainless steel or powder-coated metal—no rust, no regrets.
How to Style Shower Plants Like a Pro
Shower plants are about vibe as much as greenery. Here’s how to nail the look:
- Layer the heights → big fern at eye level, trailing pothos above, mini button fern on a low caddy.
- Think textures → glossy Peace Lily leaves next to matte grasses or ferns = instant depth.
- Play with light → position trailing plants where sunlight hits for that golden morning glow.
- Keep it functional → rust-proof black or brass caddies look chic and protect your plants.
- Add coziness → even a scented shower-safe candle on Amazon can complete the spa moment.
Build Your Own Bathroom Jungle
Start with one plant and one sleek caddy—you don’t need 12 at once. A Bird’s Nest Fern in a matte black caddy already feels styled.
Add a trailing pothos later, maybe a few air plants in a hanging holder, and suddenly your shower is less “bathroom” and more “Pinterest retreat.”
Trust me, showering surrounded by greenery is a mood you won’t want to give up.
