Why, yes, you can use your plant babies as decor staples for your coffee table. No matter what your design aesthetic might be, plants can instantly give your coffee table a pop of color and personality. Succulents are perfect for being used as decorations and a lot of them are the ideal size to fit small spaces as well. With smaller, planted pots, you can make a beautiful, eye-catching arrangement with little effort.
