Moss Wall Art: Trendy & Natural

Are you Looking to bring a touch of nature inside this season, but you want something more than just a sprig of flowers? Same.

Actually, my a moss wall art was one of my mom's projects and seeing all the little tufts of green scattered around the living room for a week got me interested.

So get ready to say hello to the world of moss wall art! 

It's like having one of those amazing green walls from Malaysia right in your living room, all without having to worry about bugs or green thumb requirements. And both of those are plusses in my book. 

Moss wall art, if you've never heard of it before, is a creative and eco-friendly way to incorporate the beauty of nature into your interior spaces. 

They are popping up in more and more places from offices to homes, restaurants to hotels.

In today's post, we'll explore the enchanting beauty, surprising benefits, and endless creative possibilities of moss wall art.

The Beauty of Moss Wall Art

There's just something enchanting and cute about moss. The lush green carpet that blankets the forest floor, the secret ingredient that gives trees character.

It's like Mother Nature's way of giving us a gentle nod, reminding us to bring a piece of the outdoors inside.

Enter moss wall art.

Art is all good and well to spice up your walls, but walking into a room where walls breathe life, where verdant hues create an oasis of calm amidst the chaos of everyday life has its own unique appeal.

With moss wall art, you can turn any ordinary space into an indoor/outdoor sanctuary.

And there are so many types of moss! The textures play with your eyes and tempt you to reach out and feel it. 

Some comments I've heard against moss art complains that it's boring since it's all green. Yes and no.

Moss wall art can get as colorful as you want with a kaleidoscope of colors, from deep emerald greens to vibrant shades of chartreuse. And let's not forget the three-dimensional aspect it brings which is very different from any painting or print. 

So, whether you're looking to add a slice of nature in your urban flat or simply looking for a visually stunning conversation starter, moss wall art has got you covered. 

Benefits of Moss Wall Art

And here you thought it was all decorative.

Moss wall art actually has a lot of benefits, especially when it comes to the environment.

 

#1. Let's talk about air quality. We all know that plants are the ultimate air purifiers, but moss takes it up a notch. Moss absorbs pollutants and releases clean oxygen, making your space a fresher, healthier haven.

Though I will say that's slightly misleading since for most moss wall art, the moss you use is preserved (aka dead). So while it probably still absorbs pollutants from the room, it is not releasing new oxygen. 

 

#2. It's a natural sound absorber. It's squishy and soft like Styrofoam and moss acts as a soft cushion, absorbing those unwanted noises and creating a more serene environment. Only it looks a lot better than Styrofoam.

Maintenance 

Maintenance, or lack thereof. 

This is a major plus of moss art because you get all the beauty and benefits of greenery without the high-maintenance routine (or the potential to kill an expensive plant) that often comes with it.

Preserved moss and artificial moss. 

Preserved moss is processed to keep it vibrant and green, requiring zero water or sunlight. And artificial moss? Well, it's artificial, so it'll last as long as the material it's made of lasts. 

No need to worry about watering, pruning, or chasing sunlight.

Compared to live plants, moss wall art demands minimal upkeep.

Oh, and did we mention the longevity? Preserved and artificial moss have some serious staying power. They don't fade away like summer annuals or wilt like delicate flowers. 

These moss wall art superheroes retain their beauty over time, so it's worth the up front investment.  

Though I have heard that depending on how much sun your moss wall art is in, it can get sun bleached and need to be changed out within a year. I personally can't say if that's true or false since I don't have any moss wall art close to being a year old.

The Possibilities are Endless

Moss wall art isn't just about slapping some moss on a wall and calling it a day. Oh no, it's an opportunity for creativity. And even if you aren't the craftiest, moss wall art is a great project to try your hand at because it's easy to look good and hard to mess up.

Moss wall art isn't limited to monotonous green fields. You can create intricate geometric designs, flowing organic shapes, or even spell out your favorite motivational quote with mossy letters. Think outside the box here. 

In my mom's piece we added some drift wood and fun pebbles.

The best part is that this type of art is for all occasions. it's so versatile and can be customized to suit any space and aesthetic. Whether you're going for a sleek modern look or a cozy rustic vibe, moss can match either. 

Here are just a few examples of where moss wall art can shine its green spotlight:

Offices: This little slice of green can help you turn your cubicle into a productive and calm space. It's your own little slice of nature amidst all the deadlines and emails.

Homes: Here you have a lot more wall space than in a cubicle. So think about accent walls to moss-filled frames. And the best part? No watering or shedding leaves.

Restaurants: Here I really imagine moss wall art elevating cafes and smaller eateries, but there's really no limit. Moss wall art adds a unique, natural touch to dining spaces, creating a comfortable ambiance.

Hotels: Again, I really think that moss wall art when used tastefully in professional settings can really help elevate the look. Moss adds a touch of tranquility and elegance to hotel lobbies, spa areas, and even guest rooms. It's a visual way to invite relaxation and rejuvenation which everyone is after when they're on vacation.

In Conclusion...

If you've been looking for something new or a new style, consider moss wall art as a unique and eco-friendly way to elevate your indoor spaces. 

It's not just about adding a decorative element; it's about bringing nature's serenity and vitality into your daily life. 

With moss wall art, you can create a greener, fresher, and more visually captivating environment that leaves a lasting impression.
