Boho Fringe Wall Hanging, Sixteen Designs in Three Shapes

Nothing useful. They are supplier codes, not descriptions. The sixteen options cover three different shapes, so match the studio photograph to the number before you order.

Straight panels are 1, 2, 7, 14, 15 and 16. U swags are 12 and 13. Half round wood discs are 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 9, 10 and 11.

Depends on the wall. A straight panel fills a tall narrow space. A U swag is wide and needs two fixings. A half round disc is roughly square and wants the middle of a wall on its own.

From two fixings set apart, because the two battens carry the loop between them. Hang the battens close together and the swag collapses.

From a single batten or panel each, so one fixing, though a wide batten is steadier on two. No hardware is supplied on any option.

Not published for any of the sixteen. There is no size field on this listing at all. Measure your wall and treat the fit as unverified.

Single colors in forest green, cream, sage, rust and tan; two tone splits pairing cream with rust or with green; and one multi color design in cream, mustard, dusty pink and rose with a gold edge cord.

It is a fine gold cord run along the edge of the swag loops. In the close photograph it reads as a thin bright line rather than a shiny finish. It is the only metallic in this collection.

No. None of the sixteen is knotted. They are fringe, swags and fringe under wood.

Vacuum on low suction along the direction of the cord. On the half round designs, wipe the wood dry. Do not wash any of them.

Panels beside a bed or in a narrow gap. Swags above a bed or a sofa where there is width. Discs centered on a wall on their own, with space around them.

Because the supplier pooled three designs under one product record. We think it should be three and have said so; the owner may split it before this goes live.

No. The wood on the half round designs will move in damp air and the cord holds moisture.

One piece for the option chosen, with its batten or panel. No hooks, fixings or instructions.

The supplier gives Origin as Mainland China and no brand name. The seller describes them as hand made; that is its word rather than ours.

One object centered on the headboard at roughly two thirds its width. Which shape from this listing you want depends on that: the swags are wide enough for a bed, the single panels are not.

Adhesive strips rated well above the weight, or hooks over a picture rail. The half round designs here have a solid wood panel and are the heaviest of the sixteen, so they are the least suitable for a strip.

One wide object or a considered group. From this listing the U swags are the widest, and the single panels are for narrow walls rather than large ones.

Textiles. They cover more wall per pound than framed art, need smaller fixings, and come off the wall in one movement when you leave.

The texture-led version is. What has dated is the heavy knotted macrame and the dreamcatcher end of it. Plain fringe and wood, which is what this listing is, has stayed.

Something matt with depth. A sofa wall is usually lit from the side, which flatters texture and flattens a print. A wide swag suits the horizontal shape of a sofa better than a tall panel.

Textiles, almost always. At that budget a fiber piece gives you size and texture where a framed print gives you a small image behind glass.

From its batten, level, with two fixings if the batten is long. The swag designs here need two fixings set apart, and hanging both battens close together collapses the shape entirely.

Vacuum on the lowest suction, working in the direction the cord hangs. Do not wash it. A hung piece collects dust rather than dirt, and dust comes off dry.

Pick one wall per room and do it properly. The common mistake is spreading a small budget across every wall, which leaves all of them looking unfinished.

Cream for texture without a second green, or a sage a shade deeper than the wall. Several options here are cream, which is the safer choice against a green wall.

Fiber in warm tones. Rust and tan on a rope surface reads warmer than the same color printed flat, because the surface breaks the light up rather than reflecting it evenly.

Only well clear of the mattress and out of a standing child's reach, with nothing that can come away. The half round designs here have a wood panel, which is not what you want above a cot at all.

Fiber, wood or a woven panel. All three give you a neutral color with a surface, which is what a canvas cannot do: a neutral canvas is just a beige rectangle.

One piece, narrow rather than wide, hung a little higher than eye level. The single straight panels on this listing are the ones for a small room; the swags will crowd it.

Something for a wall, kept neutral. Bear in mind this particular listing covers three different shapes under sixteen codes, so check the photograph carefully before ordering it as a gift.

A little. One panel takes the edge off a hard wall in a small room. Genuinely fixing an echo needs soft surfaces on several planes, not one wall.

Something wide, matt and neutral. The U swag designs here work because they are horizontal and read as texture behind people rather than as a pattern competing with them.

Genuinely handmade studio pieces run into the hundreds. This is an unbranded import with no named maker, and it should be priced and judged as that rather than as studio work.

There is no settled name, which is half the problem with the category. Sellers use fringe, tassel, macrame and tapestry for quite different objects. These are fringe: plain cord hung from a rail with no knotwork.

Anything fixed into something solid rather than into plasterboard alone. The half round designs on this listing carry a wood panel, so they are the ones that need a proper fixing rather than a hook.

A toggle or a plasterboard anchor rated well above the weight, or into a stud. A bare picture hook in plasterboard is rated for a light frame and nothing more.

Printed dorm tapestries are. Textured woven and fiber pieces are not, and the difference matters: they are different objects that happen to share a word.

Cover rather than change. A large textile piece alters how a wall reads more than paint would, and it leaves no trace. Renters get better results treating walls as something to hang from than something to change.

The straight panels here rather than the half round designs, which carry a solid wood panel. Old plaster crumbles around a nail, so lighter is genuinely better rather than just easier.

Something with more contrast than beige, or the wall disappears behind the sofa. The green and rust options here register against beige where the cream ones will not.

Nothing flammable close to a working fire, first. Above a decorative or unused fireplace a wide horizontal piece works; above a lit one, keep fiber well clear regardless of what any listing claims.

Hang it and wait. Cord compresses in a flat parcel and drops out under its own weight in a day or two. Combing it down with your fingers speeds it up; weighting it does not help.

Something for a bare wall, light enough to hang without tools. Avoid anything that assumes a room size, which is the usual way a well meant wall gift ends up in a cupboard.

It is softer and combs out better than a blend, and it fades a little faster in strong sun. This supplier declares 100% Cotton for this product, which is worth having stated rather than assumed.

Check the product page for current times. Fiber pieces travel compressed regardless of the timeline, so expect creases and allow a day of hanging before judging the shape.

No, and matching exactly usually looks worse than not trying. Share one tone between them and let the rest differ, which reads as a scheme rather than as a set.

Anything that hangs from a single point rather than sitting flat. Fiber is forgiving on texture; a large flat frame shows every irregularity behind it.

Something narrow and shallow that people do not brush against. The straight panels here suit a hallway; the half round designs stand proud of the wall and will get caught.

Dyed cotton shifts in tone over a year or two of strong direct sun. Undyed cream warms rather than fades. No light fastness figure is published for this product.

Keep any fiber piece well clear of an open flame. No flame rating is published anywhere in this supplier's listing, so there is nothing to rely on and general caution is the only sensible position.
