The Sill was founded on this simple premise—plants make us happier, healthier humans.
I started The Sill in 2012 at the age of 26 in borrowed office space in a tiny walk-up in New York City’s Chinatown. The idea had sprouted years before (sorry, we love a good plant pun around here) when I found myself in my first adult apartment. Bleak is how you’d describe it. Homesick is how you’d describe me. My Mom, an immigrant who stayed connected to her Filipino roots through gardening, recommended I get some houseplants. Little did I know tapping into my family’s generational love of plants would grow into the small but mighty company that is The Sill.

Made With Care
We know how important materials that go into our products are to our customers. That’s why we’ve done our best to find high-quality, durable materials for our faux line to create long-term additions to your home. Our real-looking artificial plants and stems are made of a combination of fabric, plastic, wire, and foam, while larger plants may have an additional base composed of concrete and wood. Faux plants can be paired with our modern yet timeless earthenware planters for a finished look.
We have customers who simply have restrictions—be it low light, busy schedules, small children, or curious pets. Faux plants give them the ability to bring greenery and joy into their space, minus the headache. We believe that plants, in all forms, make people happy.

I instantly became passionate about plants, and keenly aware of the impact being around plants had on me growing up. There’s something in the simple act of being around and caring for plants that improves our mood, and, added bonus, beautifies the spaces we live and work in. It’s been shown every exposure to nature—from indoor gardening to forest bathing—mitigates the modern condition, that stressed-out state we find ourselves in all too often. That (plus a lot of dirt, sweat, and hustle) is how The Sill came to be.
