If you’re looking for a way to decorate your bare walls but want an alternative to store-bought framed prints, textile wall hangings are a great way to add a splash of color, pattern, and texture to your space. Synonymous with 1970s bohemian decor, macrame, weaves, and tapestries are currently having a major trend revival. However, contemporary textile artists aren’t just creating throw-back renditions—they’re modernizing the craft by using a variety of techniques and materials.
In this list, we’ve included the ready-to-hang, highly textural work of sisterly design duo Crossing Threads; gorgeous modern macrame by Teddy and Wool; rainbow fiber art by Mandi Smethells, and more. There’s even fuzzy felted animal designs by Holly Guertin (aka Ernie and Irene).
