Wall Hanging: Key trend you do not want to miss
I say YES to wall hanging in 2021 as the art comes in various shapes and textures and can bring an inspiring boho style to your home as well as a cozy feminine touch.
What is wall hanging?
Wall hanging is the technique of weaving different threads and materials together to create an artful design to display on your walls. The piece can be as little as a plate or as large as your whole wall! It is a very creative way to show your woven skills and taste for colors and texture. This artwork can use various types of threads (cotton, linen, wool, silk), ribbons, textiles, yarns with different thicknesses, artifacts like feathers, pompons, fringe or beads…
A wall hanging is a personal, unique item and gives lots of texture, softness and warmth to a room. It’s usually mounted on a wooden stick.
During the weaving process you can choose to create your piece with i high and lows or more flat and one dimensional. Depending on your home décor, wall hangings look fabulous with both neutral, earthy tones as well as vibrant colorful explosions.
Your choice – be bold and have fun!
Wall hanging, roger that … but for which home décor style?
This woven piece of art is usually handmade and brings a gypsy touch to your interior décor. It is very feminine, soft as cozy, warm materials are typically used, which makes it perfect to create a cocoon-like atmosphere. The color generally determines the style of the wall hanging: Select some neutral colors and you will get a warm, relaxing and discreet décor. Pick some wild bright colors and you are switching to a tonic, hippie or tribal interior décor. Hmmm, what to choose?
Well, I love the idea but how and where do I install the wall hanging in my house?
You can choose to hang a large wall hanging in an entrance or an isolated wall in your house to make an eye-catching statement.
You can also decide to place it above your bed and in this case, it will be a smaller size, not to overwhelm the whole bedroom. A triangle shape or a 3-panel piece can be a great option for that.
In a main room like the living room or bathroom, pay attention to the size of the room and also the other items you already feature. The wall hanging can become the main piece and be a large size art or complement the other home accessories and be more in harmony with the room balance.
