Bring Nature Into Your Apartment: 6 Ways That You Probably Never Thought Of
There's something about nature and all of its elements that really relax and makes me feel good. I think that it has to do with how it reminds me of DR (btw that's short for Dominican Republic) or just anywhere tropical and relaxing. The colors, scents, textures (I can go on and on and I promise, I'll get to the tips), but let's just say that it just soothes me.
It's one of reasons why I always find a way to bring nature into my room. If you're like me and crave that relaxation, then learning about ways to bring nature into your apartment is something that you should be doing for your space. Even in the tiniest of ways and yeah this can be done. 
Now when you hear the word nature and room in the same sentence, the first thing that probably comes to mind are plants, but if you're not a plant person like me (somehow I always seem to kill anything that doesn't have a pulse), I have four kids and they are all still breathing, but plants? They just don't survive under my watch.
We just don't go well together (if you can relate, check out this post on kill proof ways to decorate with plants).
I guess what I'm trying to say is that there is hope for you to bring nature into your apartment if you're not a plant lover.
Now onto the tips...
