Wall macramé (also known as a dream catcher) is a decoration made of hand-knotted cords, used to decorate interiors. When choosing macramé, pay attention to its size, color, and style so it blends perfectly with the room’s décor. It’s best to select a macramé that matches the interior style—rich patterns work well for boho spaces, while minimalist interiors are complemented by simple forms in muted colors.
Macramé should be made from natural materials such as cotton or jute, which further emphasizes its eco-friendly character and fits in with modern interior trends.

How to match macramé to interior style?
Macramé should be matched to the interior style, paying attention to the color, pattern, and the material it’s made from. In boho interiors, macramé in warm, earthy shades with dense knotting is dominant. Scandinavian interiors require simplicity—light, beige macramé with a delicate weave will be an ideal accent.
In modern spaces, it’s worth using dream catchers with clear, geometric patterns, preferably in contrasting colors. The key is that the macramé should harmonize with the furniture, lighting, and other accessories to create a cohesive décor. Check different interior styles and choose something for yourself!

How to correctly mount wall macramé?
To correctly mount wall macramé, you should first choose the right spot—best if it’s clearly visible, but not exposed to moisture or direct sunlight. Next, use a sturdy hook or wall plug suited to the macramé’s weight. Hanging macramé should be hung at the appropriate height, ideally at eye level, which emphasizes its decorative character. It’s important that it’s well tensioned and doesn’t hang unevenly, which could disrupt the room’s aesthetics.
