Place some potted green friends or a tall tree in front of your bay window as seen here.

Trees are excellent for adding height and dimension to any space.

Display everything from plants to vases to picture frames.

Set up a charming vignette by choosing a fun hue for your seating.

Then, accent the space with plants or pampas grass, as we see above.

Install a gallery wall off to the side of these chairs to complete the look.

This is a great way to maximize seating in your living room if you love to host and entertain.

Once again, the fact that the bench offers storage below couldn’t be more useful!
