Trying Something New: The Aspect Indoor Grow Light for Your Home

Well hello! It’s been a while [I know I always say that]. What can I say – life with two kids and a job have kept me busy – as well as the fact that we are in the process of buying our first home! It’s all very exciting and nerve-wracking and amazing – and also the perfect excuse to pick up where I left off of the ole blog. My life over the next several years will be wrought with DIY projects around our new home, so I expect that you’ll be seeing more of me for a bit.

More on that later.

Today I wanted to share a really awesome product that I started using over the last couple of months – The Aspect Indoor Plant Light. We all love the idea of filling our homes with plants of different variations – tropical, succulent, ferns. There was a time that I counted 25 potted plants in my home. I learned the hard way, though, that I am no green-thumb. Be it a mixture of neglect (did I water all of the plant today??), or placement (finding that perfect sunny/not too sunny spot is key), I just can’t seem to win. And by win, I mean keep my plants alive.

Enter The Aspect, made by Soltechsolutions. Not only is the light museum-quality, it’s aesthetically on-point with my whole vintage-minimalism vibe. Oh, and it keeps your plants alive by providing that oh-so-important solar nourishment.

This dark little corner where my bar-cart sits was the perfect spot for my new Aspect light. This corner is in our dining room right off of the kitchen, next to some north facing windows. This part of the house gets minimal diffuse light throughout the day, but never enough to nourish anything in the corner. But, is your bar-cart even a bar-cart if there isn’t a plant next to it??? Pinterest and any design blog on the planet would tell you: NO.

Without getting too scientific, this grow light was created with a light spectrum that targets Chlorophyll A & B absorption. This light’s amazing superpowers also mean that you grow food inside, too (good news for my family in Alaska who miss out on year-round gardening!). I chose the White 40W Aspect LED Grow Light in large. It even comes with a timer that allows you to enjoy stress-free plant care (that’s a real thing!)

No more sad, brown plants. No more wilted and neglected leaves. Now, I just need, like, 24 more.

**This is a sponsored post, but all thoughts and content are my own. I am so happy to have worked with Soltech Solutions on this post and love using my Aspect Light in my home!

Leather Barrette-2
Over the holidays I was out shopping for gifts when I came across this really simple, leather barrette. It wasn’t super expensive (about $25), but I was trying to stay on track to buy gifts for the people on my list, not myself (it’s a slippery slope).
Leather Barrette-1
I like it. Simple and different and much better than that unsightly rubber band I’ve been using to tie my hair back lately.
