Macrame Wall Hanging with Wooden Beads, 50 x 70 cm Cream Fringe
Item details Materials, dimensions, what is in the box
The shape people picture when they say macrame
Beaded swags across the top, a panel of stacked open diamonds below them, and a fringe cut to a deep V. If you typed macrame wall hanging into a search box and pictured something, this is close to what you pictured, and there is a reason those elements keep recurring: they are what knotted cord does well.
At 50 by 70 cm it is a mid size piece. Above a double bed it reads as a modest centered object at roughly a third of the headboard width, not a statement. That is a real limit and it is better said than discovered.
One color, one size
There is no variant to choose. Natural undyed cream with pale wooden beads, at one published size. It makes this the simplest product in the collection to buy and the easiest to size against a wall.
Where it works
- Centered above a headboard in a bedroom
- Above a sofa in a small living room, where a wide piece would crowd it
- In a nursery, which is what the third photograph shows
- On a narrow wall where a 50 cm width is the constraint

What the beads do
The two swagged bead rows are not decoration alone. They carry the weight of the braided cord across the top, which is what stops the upper edge sagging between the dowel ends. On a cheaper version of this shape the swags go slack within weeks; here they are threaded on braided cord rather than single strands.
Frequently asked questions
Straight answers about the materials, care and everyday use — no fine print.
How big is it?
50 by 70 cm, about 20 by 28 inches, per the supplier. That is a genuine published figure rather than an estimate from a photograph.
Is it big enough for above my bed?
Over a double it reads as a modest centered piece, roughly a third of the headboard width. Over a king it will look small. The usual guide is about two thirds the width of the furniture below.
What makes this the classic shape?
Beaded swags, a knotted diamond panel and a V fringe. Those three elements recur across the whole category because they are what knotted cotton cord does structurally well.
What are the bead rows for?
Both decoration and structure. Threading the beads onto braided cord carries the weight across the span, which is what stops the top edge sagging between the dowel ends over time.
Is there a color choice?
No. Natural undyed cream with pale wooden beads, at one size. There is no variant to pick, which makes it the simplest product in this collection to buy.
What is it made of?
Cotton cord with a visible ply, round natural wooden beads, and a slim pale wooden dowel. No blend percentage is published.
How does it hang?
From the dowel, one or two fixings. At 50 cm wide one central hook is usually enough, though two keeps the dowel level.
How much does it weigh?
Not published. It is cotton cord and small wooden beads at a modest size, so it is light, but with no figure from the supplier we will not quote one.
How do I clean it?
Brush the fringe downwards and vacuum on low suction. Wipe the beads with a dry cloth. Do not wash it: knotted cord tightens unevenly when wet.
The fringe is not hanging straight, what do I do?
Comb it down with your fingers from the last knot to the hem. Cord compresses in a flat pack and settles into its V over a day or two of hanging.
Where does it work?
Above a headboard, above a sofa in a small living room, or in a nursery. The three photographs use exactly those. At 50 cm wide it also suits a narrow wall where width is the constraint.
Is it suitable for a nursery?
It is photographed in one. It carries loose cord and wooden beads, so fix it well above the cot and out of a standing child's reach, as with any hanging.
Can it go in a bathroom?
Nothing in the source supports it. Knotted cotton in a steamy room stays damp inside the knots where it cannot dry.
Is anything included?
One wall hanging on its dowel. No hooks, fixings or instructions are listed or shown.
How is this different from the bigger pieces here?
Mainly scale and shape. This is the traditional knotted silhouette at a modest 50 by 70 cm. The wide arcs and swags in this collection are twice the width and are not knotted at all.
What should I hang on the wall above my bed?
One object at about two thirds the headboard width. At 50 by 70 cm this piece is a modest centered medallion over a double and will look small over a king.
What wall decor works in a rental without damaging the walls?
Light textile pieces on adhesive strips. This one is cotton cord and small wooden beads at a modest size, which makes it one of the better candidates in this collection.
How do I fill a big empty bedroom wall cheaply?
One correctly sized piece rather than several small ones. This is a mid size piece, so on a genuinely big wall it wants company or a larger sibling.
What is a good boho wall hanging for a bedroom?
The classic shape, which is what this is: beaded swags, a knotted diamond panel and a V fringe. Those three elements recur because they are what knotted cord does well.
How do I hang a macrame wall hanging without drilling?
Adhesive strips rated above the weight, pressed for the full cure time. At 50 cm wide one central strip is usually enough, though two keeps the dowel level.
What are boho decor ideas for a small first apartment?
Texture, warm light and one piece per wall. All three are cheap, reversible and do more than furniture at the same price.
What wall art suits a neutral cream bedroom?
Something with either texture or contrast. Undyed cream on a cream wall needs strong side light to read; if the room is flatly lit, choose something darker instead.
Is macrame still in style in 2026?
The classic beaded shape has stayed, partly because it is what people picture when they say macrame. Heavy 1970s panels have not.
What is a good housewarming gift under 100 dollars?
Something for a wall, neutral and light. This shape is the safest choice in the category because it is the one most people already have in mind.
What dorm wall decor does not need nails?
Anything light enough for adhesive strips, checked against your building rules. One fixing and under a kilogram is the practical test.
What is the difference between macrame and a woven tapestry?
Macrame is knotted cord, a tapestry is woven cloth. They look different up close: knotwork stands proud and casts shadows, woven cloth lies flat and creases.
What is 50 by 70 cm in inches?
About 20 by 28 inches. That is a mid size piece: bigger than an accent, smaller than a statement.
What wall decor looks good on a lilac or pastel wall?
Undyed cream, which is what this comes in. Pastels need a neutral to sit against; adding a second soft color usually makes both look washed out.
What is a good gift for someone moving into a first apartment?
Something for a wall they have not filled yet. Keep it neutral and light enough to hang without tools, which this is.
What goes above a wooden headboard?
Something that contrasts the wood rather than matching it. Undyed cream against oak or walnut reads as a deliberate pairing; a mid brown piece against mid brown wood does not.
Are macrame wall hangings safe in a nursery?
Above the reach line, yes. This one carries loose cord and wooden beads, so fix it well above the cot and out of a standing child's reach.
How do I style a boho reading nook?
A chair, a lamp at seated height, a soft floor covering and one textile on the wall behind. The lamp height matters more than the wall piece, and people usually get it wrong.
What decor makes a bedroom look finished?
Curtains that reach the floor, a rug bigger than you think, and one thing on the main wall. Almost every unfinished bedroom is missing at least two of those three.
Is macrame or a framed print better above a bed?
Macrame, for the simple reason that there is no glass over your head. Aesthetically it also softens the hardest wall in the room, which a frame does not.
How do you fluff macrame fringe?
Comb it down with your fingers from the last knot to the hem. Cord compresses in a flat parcel and settles into its V within a day or two of hanging.
How wide should wall art be over a king bed?
A king headboard is about 180 cm, so roughly 120 cm of art. At 50 cm this piece is far under that and will look lost; it suits a double or a narrower wall.
What hardware comes with a macrame wall hanging?
On this one, none. No hooks, fixings or instructions are listed or shown, which is true of every product in this collection.
How do I hang wall decor on a plaster wall?
Drill rather than hammer, and use a plug. Old lime plaster crumbles around a nail and the hole grows. A light piece needs very little, but it needs the right hole.
What is a fair price for a 20 by 28 inch macrame wall hanging?
Depends entirely on whether it is studio made. This is an import with no named maker, so compare it against other imports of similar size rather than against handmade work.
What wall hanging works in a nursery reading corner?
Something soft, neutral and fixed above reach. The third photograph on this listing is exactly that: the piece on a lilac wall beside a boucle chair.
Does a macrame wall hanging shed or fray?
Cotton cord fluffs at the cut ends with handling, which is normal. Real fraying only begins if you cut past a binding, which is why the fringe should be left as it comes.
What decor suits a boho living room above the couch?
Something wider than this piece, honestly. At 50 cm it is a bedroom or nook scale object; above a couch it wants to be closer to 100 cm.
What macrame decor works for a wedding ceremony?
Full length curtains for a backdrop and smaller pieces for a welcome table. A 50 by 70 cm piece is welcome table scale rather than ceremony scale.
How long does a handmade wall hanging take to ship?
Check the product page for current times. This ships from the supplier rather than a workshop, so it is a standard import timeline.
What is a boho gift for a wedding shower?
Something for the couple's first shared wall. Neutral and mid size works because it does not take a side on either person's taste.
How do you iron or steam cotton macrame?
Do not. Steam relaxes the knots and the piece loses the tension that holds its shape. Hanging it for two days does everything steaming would, without the damage.
Is cotton macrame a fire risk near candles?
Any fiber burns if a flame reaches it. Keep it clear of candles and hot bulbs. No flame rating is published for this piece, so that is caution rather than a specification.
What is the best wall hanging for a dorm room bed wall?
Something light on one fixing, at about half the bed width. This piece at 50 cm suits a twin dorm bed better than it suits a double at home.
What macrame size fits above a twin bed?
A twin is about 100 cm wide, so 60 to 70 cm of art. At 50 cm this is slightly under, which reads fine, where a 95 cm piece would overhang the bed.
What is a jacquard tapestry and is macrame the same thing?
A jacquard tapestry is woven cloth with the pattern woven in on a loom. Macrame is knotted cord with no loom involved. They are completely different objects that share a shelf in most shops.
