The wall wants a plant, but there is no light there for one
Every house has a wall like this: good bones, bad light. Above a sofa that faces away from the window, behind a headboard, in the dim end of an entryway - exactly where a trailing pothos would look right and exactly where one would die within a month. This is the workaround: leaf shapes without the plant.
It is a piece of macrame wall art built from eight cords hung off a single pine dowel, each cord threaded through wooden beads before it ends in a combed leaf - a spine of tight knots down the center, fanned out flat into a teardrop and trimmed to a point. The eight leaves land in three colors and three cord lengths, so they overlap into a loose cascade rather than a straight row - closer to a macrame leaf wall hanging than the diamond-lattice macrame most people picture.
Two colorways exist, both sharing the same cream: green leaf wall decor in sage and forest green, or a coffee run in tan and chestnut brown. Both measure 25 x 60 cm on the same size diagram, and both are photographed doing the same job - filling a narrow, low-light wall a plant will not survive on.

What you get
- Nothing is doubled up.
- A built-in hanging loop. The two outer cords are tied into a triangle above the dowel in every photograph - unlike some pieces in this collection, this one does not leave you to source your own cord. One nail or hook through that loop is all the wall needs.
- Three colors per set, always including cream. Coffee runs tan, chestnut brown and cream; Green runs sage, forest green and cream. Neither colorway is a single flat tone.
- Wooden beads, unevenly spaced. Pale round beads sit partway down some cords and not others - visible directly in the photographs - so the beads read as a design detail, not a uniform repeat.
- No separate hardware. Our packaging line reads "Individually packed in OPP bag" and nothing else. The hanging loop is part of the piece; a nail or hook is on you.
Dimensions, and what they mean on your wall
25 cm across the dowel, 60 cm top to bottom, excluding the hanging loop - the same for both colorways. Both are straight measurements - a width and a drop - not a length traced around a curve, so there is no path-length trap to correct for here.
| Drop, dowel to lowest leaf | 60 cm / 23.6 in, excluding the hanging loop above the dowel. |
|---|---|
| Total hang height, with loop | Add a few centimeters for the loop and your nail or hook above that. |
| Leaves | 8, one per cord. |
| Depth off the wall | The combed leaves are flat but not pressed flat; expect a few centimeters of relief, not a poster-flat surface. |

25 cm is narrow - about the width of a hardback book. At 60 cm tall it is a vertical accent, not a wide focal piece, and it earns its keep on the walls a wide canvas does not fit: beside a headboard, above one end of a sofa, in the dead space next to a door.
How to hang it
One point, one fixing. The hanging loop tied above the dowel is the only attachment point shown in any photograph, so a single nail or picture hook through that loop carries the whole piece. No level of the leaves is needed - they are meant to fall unevenly.
In both, it hangs alone, with real wall space on either side - the cascade shape is the visual interest, and it gets crowded fast next to other frames.

It ships individually bagged, not boxed flat under weight, so the leaves should arrive close to their photographed shape. If a fringe looks pressed after shipping, comb it downward with your fingers rather than water - macrame cord rarely dries straight once it has been wet.

Picking a color
Both sets share the same eight-leaf, three-length layout and the same cream leaves. The difference is entirely in the second and third colors.
Coffee - tan and chestnut brown. The warmer of the two, and the one photographed above a sofa in full daylight. Pick it next to oak, rattan or leather.
Green - sage and forest green. The one that leans into the "plant" framing hardest, since two of the three tones read as foliage rather than as decor color. Pick it where you want the botanical read to actually land.

Where this actually earns its place
Above a sofa that does not face a window - our own lead photograph makes the case directly. A live plant would stretch and thin in that light within weeks; this boho macrame wall hanging does the same visual job with none of the upkeep.
Second, beside a headboard as a narrow vertical accent rather than a centered piece - at 25 cm wide it sits in the gap next to a lamp or a nightstand, which is a real use for wall art for bedroom above bed searches that are actually looking for something smaller than a canvas.

Third, above a console or bench in an entryway, where a single vertical piece reads as intentional in a way a low-light shelf plant never does. As a wall tapestry that needs no water and no sun, it is one of the few decor pieces that genuinely does not care which way the room faces.
Honest limits
- Cotton thread. The macro photographs show a matte, combed fringe that reads as cotton rather than nylon's usual sheen - but we are describing a photograph, not a lab result, so we name neither with certainty.
- This appears to duplicate a second listing in this store at a different price. A prior data pass on this product flagged it as visually identical - same two colorways, same 25 x 60 cm, the same photograph set - to "Over Sofa Wall Decor, Combed Macrame Leaves and Wood Beads," a separate product on this store listed around $33. This one is listed at $49.99. We have not re-verified the images pixel by pixel ourselves, but the title, size and colorway match is close enough that a human should compare the two listings before either price stands unquestioned.
- No weight, no total hang height with the loop, no depth off the wall. All three are missing from our published data. The 60 cm figure explicitly excludes the hanging loop.
- Not a plant, and the "Plant" theme tag oversells it. It is yarn shaped like leaves. If you want air-purifying or living greenery, this is not that - it is the decor answer for the spot a real plant cannot survive in.
- Beads are not evenly placed. Some cords carry a bead, some do not, and the pattern is not symmetrical between the two sides.
Before you buy
What is it actually made of?
Unresolved. The macro photographs show a matte, fibrous, combed fringe that looks like cotton rather than nylon's characteristic sheen, but that is a visual read, not a lab test - we describe the cord by how it looks and behaves rather than pick a side.
How big is it, and does that include the hanging cord?
25 cm wide by 60 cm tall (excluding the hanging cord above the dowel) - budget a few extra centimeters, plus your nail or hook, above that.
Does it come with something to hang it?
A hanging loop, yes - tied from the same cord, above the dowel, in every photograph. A separate hook or nail is not included; our packaging line lists only "Individually packed in OPP bag."
How many leaves are there?
They hang at three different lengths so they overlap into a cascade rather than sitting in a straight row.
Is there a cheaper version of this same piece?
Possibly. This piece closely matches a second product in our store, sized and colored the same, at a noticeably lower price. We flag it here rather than resolve it - if you are comparing, check both before buying either.
Will it work above a sofa that does not get much sun?
That is the specific problem this piece answers. It is photographed above a sofa facing away from a window, in a spot where our own staging implies a real plant would struggle. Because it is cord and wood, light exposure does not affect it.
Do both colorways include cream, or is one solid-toned?
Both include cream. Coffee is tan, chestnut brown and cream; Green is sage, forest green and cream. Neither option is a single flat color.
Frequently asked questions
Straight answers about the materials, care and everyday use — no fine print.
cheap boho wall decor ideas under 50 dollars?
This piece runs a modest 25 x 60 cm accent, sized for filling a narrow, low-light wall rather than making a huge style statement - a simple one-dowel, eight-cord build. It comes in two colorways: Green (sage and forest green leaves with cream) and Coffee (tan and chestnut brown leaves with cream).
what can I put on the wall in a small apartment?
At just 25 cm wide and 60 cm tall, it is narrow enough to work as a vertical accent rather than a wide focal piece - beside a headboard, above one end of a sofa, or in the dead space next to a door. Above a three-seat sofa it reads as a slim accent about a fifth of the sofa's width; above a bed it hangs as a single centered column.
good housewarming gift under 40 dollars?
It arrives flat or rolled and needs one hook, so it is a gift that does not ask the recipient to assemble anything. There is a choice of option to make, so check what they would pick. It is photographed in a living room above a sofa.
how do I decorate a dorm room wall?
Yes - at 25 x 60 cm it is small enough to hang from a single nail or an adhesive picture hook, which suits a wall you cannot drill into freely. It ships individually bagged rather than boxed flat, so the leaves should arrive close to their photographed shape with no steaming or reshaping needed before you hang it.
what does 60 by 25 cm look like on a wall?
25 cm wide is about the width of a hardback book; 60 cm tall keeps it a vertical accent rather than a wide focal piece. Above a three-seat sofa it reads as a narrow accent, roughly a fifth of the sofa's width; above a headboard it sits as a single centered column in the gap beside a lamp or nightstand. Measure the actual gap you are filling, since that number matters more than the piece's own dimensions.
how do I fix frizzy macrame fringe?
Dust it with a soft brush or a vacuum on its lowest setting rather than washing it - cord that has been soaked rarely hangs straight again. If the leaves look pressed after shipping (it ships individually bagged, not boxed flat), comb the fringe downward with your fingers to restore the combed, teardrop shape rather than reaching for water.
what is the difference between cotton rope and nylon macrame?
The macro photographs show a matte, fibrous, combed fringe that looks and behaves like cotton rather than nylon's usual sheen, so that is the more likely read, though we cannot certify it as a lab fact.
how do you hang something on a plaster wall?
A single hook or nail into drywall is usually enough for a cord-and-wood piece this size, and into a stud is even better if one lines up. The only attachment point is the hanging loop tied above the dowel, so one nail or picture hook through that loop carries the whole piece - no separate hardware ships with it, so plan to supply your own.
is macrame flammable near a candle?
The options are Green: sage and forest green leaves with cream; Coffee: tan and chestnut brown leaves with cream.
how fast does small wall decor usually ship?
What we can tell you: it ships individually bagged rather than boxed flat, so it should arrive close to its photographed shape without needing to be reshaped.
what wall art is safe in a house with cats?
Hanging cord is inviting to a cat. Hang it clear of anything a cat can climb, and expect a low fringe to be played with if it is within reach. It is photographed in a bedroom above a headboard.
do macrame wall hangings need to be washed or just dusted?
Just dusted. A soft brush or a vacuum on its lowest setting, working downward with the cord, keeps it clean.
How many options does this come in?
2. They are: Green: sage and forest green leaves with cream; Coffee: tan and chestnut brown leaves with cream. It is photographed in a bedroom above a headboard.
Which option is the most neutral?
Coffee is the warmer, more neutral pick - tan and chestnut brown paired with cream, photographed above a sofa in full daylight, and suited to sitting next to oak, rattan or leather. Green leans harder into a botanical look with sage and forest green tones, which suits a spot where you want the leaf shapes to read as foliage rather than as pure wall color.
What is the wood?
The dowel is pine. It is a separate part from the leaf cord.
Will it shed?
Cut cord ends shed a little at first and settle after a week or two. Vacuum the floor under it once and it stops being noticeable. The published measurement is 60 x 25 cm.
Will it work in a rental?
Yes, if you hang it on an adhesive hook rather than a nail. It has one hanging point, so there is only one mark to avoid making. The options are Green: sage and forest green leaves with cream; Coffee: tan and chestnut brown leaves with cream.
Is the price for one piece?
Check the option name before ordering. Where an option names a set or a pair, that is what ships; where it does not, treat it as a single piece. Above a three-seat sofa it is a narrow accent about a fifth of the sofa's width; above a bed it hangs as a single centered column.
How far from the ceiling should I hang it?
Hang the top edge at eye level or a little above, then step back. On a piece that drops, the bottom edge matters more than the top: leave a hand's width between it and whatever sits underneath. It is photographed in a living room above a sofa.
Does it work with other art on the same wall?
It reads as texture rather than as a picture, so it sits beside framed prints without competing. Give it its own column of wall rather than a slot in a grid. It is photographed in a bedroom above a headboard.
What happens if it gets damp?
Cord holds damp and dries slowly, so keep it off a bathroom wall and away from a kettle or a shower door.
Will it suit a small room?
Judge it by the proportions in the lifestyle photographs rather than the numbers alone: at 25 cm wide and 60 cm tall it reads as a narrow vertical accent, not a wide focal piece, so it suits a small room better than a piece sized to fill a whole wall. A piece that fills a headboard in a large bedroom will crowd a small one.
Is the color dyed all the way through?
The cord is dyed rather than printed, so the color runs through the strand. No light fastness figure is published, so treat strong sun as a risk.
Is this the same cord material as the rest of the fiber wall art collection?
We cannot confirm it either way for this specific piece. A matte, combed cotton-look fringe.
Is this the same piece as another item in our store?
Possibly, at a different price. This piece's title, both colorway names, its 25 x 60 cm size, and its photograph set closely match a separate item we carry, priced lower. If you are comparing wall art in this style, check both before buying either.
