How Interior Design Experts Hang Tapestries


If you just purchased a home decor tapestry, you probably know how disconcerting and vexing it can be to feature a tapestry weaving correctly.  Unlike banners or a framed print, large wall tapestries can be very grueling to get just so.  As luck would have it, there are some good practiced formulas that you can stick with to make your interior design look as skillful as it should.

First, consider what implements you would like to employ to showcase your new tapestry wall hangings.  The simplest hanging method is using a wall tapestry rod.  European wall tapestry rods are preferred over curtain rods because the tapestry wall hanging rods are sturdier and will not sag in the middle.  When surfing for a rod, check for one that has easy to assemble brackets.  Make sure that your brackets will jut the tapestry weaving out from the wall more than 1 to 2 inches.  This will maintain the air circulating behind your wall tapestry, so humidity cannot become gathered and injure the material.  Hunt for a wall tapestry rod with an worn looking coating-it will add a touch of class and grandeur to your wall décor.

Second, survey your domain.  Where should you present the tapestry weaving?  How much space should you leave around the hanging tapestry?  Here are some universal principles that might assist.

If you have a long and compressed vertical wall hanging quite similar to our Long and narrow tapestries and wall decor, you might want to arrange it on a wall that is thin and long, but make sure there is enough room bordering it to thwart your wall from looking as if it is jammed.  This will definitely end the tapestry from looking like its wee and insignificant.

If you have a large imported tapestry, it looks better to show off it on a wall by itself.  You won't want to crush the illustriousness or take away from a admirer's gaze with other pieces.  Huge tapestry wall hangings can alter your residence into a castle, treat them with admiration and respect.


Perchance you purchased two smaller wall tapestries, but own only one rod-never fear, you can make this work.  You can place two tall and narrow tapestries adjacent to one another on a single wall tapestry rod, just remember to leave more than 3 to 6 inches in between them to extend the conception of separation.  Do note that this will only happen with thin wall tapestries like our Art Nouveau Series.  Anything wider than this will look uncomfortable and artless, so try your hardest to measure everything out the right way.

You might need a favorite rod if your tapestry wall hanging is excessively prominent and heavy or if your wall hanging is unfinished and small.  For huge tapestry wall hangings above 80 to 100 inches, you had better think over a tapestry rod that is at least one half inch wide.  This will block the rod from distorting in the halfway.  If you decided on a belgian chenille tapestry, you may need to use either a thin rod or a wooden rod instead of metal.  If the rod is too vast in relation to your new wall tapestry, it is bound to appear domineering and irregular.
