Item details Materials, dimensions, what is in the box

Your headboard wall is too narrow for a horizontal piece

A lot of bedroom walls are not wide walls. Beside a headboard, in the run between a window and a closet, above a slim console — the space is tall before it is anything else, and most wall art is built the other way around: wide frames, wide canvases, wide macrame panels that need a wide wall to make sense of.

This is a fringe wall hanging built for the tall gap instead. Cotton cord hangs in three tiers from a single dark stained wood batten: cream at both outer edges, a wider inner panel a step in from that, and a narrower center tail dropping lower still. The result is a layered wall hanging with a shadow line running down it, not a flat curtain of cord. A row of small knotted V shapes marks the top edge where the tiers meet — the only knotwork on the piece; everything below it is straight cut fringe.

It comes in two colorways, and they are not the same piece in different paint. The green option keeps its inner panel and center tail in one shade of green, so it reads as two colors total against the cream. Both are sized identically: 40 cm wide by 120 cm long, 780 g. It suits above bed wall decor on the strip beside a headboard, and it works just as well as entryway wall decor on a narrow run by a door.

Green and red-brick stepped fringe wall hangings hung side by side above a beige sofa, each on its own dark wood batten

What you get

  • One wall hanging, one order. A single piece on its own batten — this is not a pair or a set. Pick one colorway.
  • Nothing extra to buy to hang it — you still need a wall fixing, but the rings are already there.
  • Three tiers of cord, not one flat sheet. Cream at the outer edges, a wider inner panel one step in, and a narrower center tail dropping lower again. That third dimension is what a single flat curtain of cord can't do.
  • A color count that depends on which one you pick. Green is a two-color piece: green and cream. Red is a three-color piece: red, mustard and cream.
  • No wall fixings. The D-rings are mounted on the batten, but no nail, hook, screw or anchor for the wall itself is in the box.

Dimensions, and what they mean on your wall

We publish one size diagram covering both colorways, with the same two numbers and the same weight on each side. Everything past that table is a description of the photograph, not a separate measurement.

Width 40 cm / 15.7 in, both colorways, at the batten and the widest point of the fringe below it
Length 120 cm / 47.2 in, both colorways, from the top of the batten to the bottom of the longest strand
Weight 780 g / 1.7 lb, both colorways
Inner panel The middle length. Green on the green colorway, mustard on the red colorway
Center tail The longest of the three, and the narrowest — roughly the width of the center knot cluster. Green on the green colorway, red on the red colorway
Batten depth off the wall The photographs show a flat board, so it sits close to the wall, but no figure is stated and none is printed here

Our size diagram: both colorways measure 40 cm wide by 120 cm long and weigh 780 g

120 cm is taller than it looks in a room photograph. Measure down from where the batten would sit, leave a hand's width above a nightstand or console top, and remember the center tail hangs lower than the outer cream by roughly a third of the length.

How to hang it

The batten already carries two metal D-ring fittings, screwed into its top face — that is the one genuinely useful thing in our photographs, and it corrects an earlier note on this piece that said no hardware was included. What is not in the box is anything for the wall itself: no nail, no picture hook, no adhesive strip.

At 780 g, this is light enough for a single rated picture hook centered on the batten, or two small hooks under the D-rings if you want it dead level. A plasterboard anchor on drywall is more than the piece needs but costs nothing extra. On a rental wall, an adhesive strip rated for a light picture frame will hold it, provided you give it the full cure time before hanging the piece.

Once it's hanging, run a hand down between the tiers — the inner panel and the center tail are cut to length but not fixed to each other, so they can be pushed out of true in transit and settle back into place once gravity is doing the work rather than a flattened box.

Picking a color

Green. A green inner panel and center tail against cream — two colors, and the quieter of the two. It sits closest to a neutral room: cream, beige, warm white, raw wood. Deep green like this fights with cool gray, so pair it with something warmer.

Where this actually earns its place

Beside a bed, first. A headboard wall usually wants width, which forces a choice between a canvas too big for the gap or a print too small to matter. A tall narrow piece runs up the wall instead, and it is the shape this piece is actually built for — the center tail giving the eye somewhere to land below the frame of a headboard rather than beside it.

Second, the leftover vertical strip: between a window and a doorway, or a narrow console where 40 cm fits and 60 cm doesn't. That is the case for entryway wall decor and for any narrow wall decor problem a wide frame can't solve.

Third, one end of a sofa rather than centered above it — the same logic that makes it work as bedroom wall decor in a headboard gap applies beside a sofa arm, where a wide piece would fight the cushions and a narrow one leaves the seating alone. It reads with rattan, linen and unfinished wood as part of the wider boho wall decor family rather than against it.

Honest limits

  • Not hand-woven, on this evidence. The source title uses the word. The construction shown in every photograph is cut cord tied in three straight tiers off a batten, with knotwork limited to the small V scallops at the top join — a manufacturing step, not a claim we can independently confirm as handwork.
  • The wall fixing is on you. The batten ships with two D-rings already mounted, but no hook, nail, anchor or adhesive strip for the wall is included.
  • Batten depth and wood species aren't published. The photographs show a flat, dark stained board, so it sits close to the wall — a description of the picture, not a measurement.
  • It's a single piece, not a set. Picturing two on the wall, one of each color, means two separate orders.

Before you buy

How big is it, actually?

40 cm wide by 120 cm long, and it weighs 780 g - applies to both colorways. It's a tall, narrow proportion: measure down 120 cm from where the batten will sit before you commit to a spot.

Does it come with anything to hang it?

The wood batten already has two metal D-ring fittings screwed into its top edge, so there's no separate hook to attach. What's not included is anything for the wall itself — no nail, screw, anchor or adhesive strip. At 780 g, a single rated picture hook or two small hooks under the rings is enough.

Is the red option really two colors, like the title says?

No. The green option is: green and cream, two colors. The red option is: brick red on the narrow center tail, mustard on the wider inner panel, and cream at the outer edges — three colors.

What is the cord actually made of?

The batten is wood, not the cord. No fiber content is published for the fringe itself.

Why does it look uneven when it first arrives?

The three tiers aren't fixed to each other, so they can be pushed sideways out of line in shipping. Once it's on the wall, run a hand down between the layers to separate them and they settle back under their own weight within a day or two.

Will it work on a wide wall?

Not centered on its own. It's 40 cm wide and built for a tall, narrow gap — beside a bed, in a strip between a window and a door, or at one end of a sofa rather than in the middle of a wide run. On a wide wall by itself, it will look stranded.

Frequently asked questions

Straight answers about the materials, care and everyday use — no fine print.

How many colors are in the red option?

Three: brick red at the center with mustard and cream at the sides. We call this a two color hanging, which is right for the green option and wrong for the red one.

Which option is simpler?

The green. It is deep green over cream, two colors, and it sits more quietly in a neutral room than the red does.

Why is it layered?

For depth. Two sheets of cord at different lengths cast a shadow line between them, which a single flat curtain of cord cannot do however dense it is.

What is the knotted pattern at the top?

A row of small V scallops where the two layers meet. It is the only patterned area on the piece; everything below it is straight fringe.

It looks lopsided, what do I do?

Run your hand down between the front and back layers once it is hanging. They get pushed out of line in transit and fall back into place under their own weight.

How big is it?

40 cm wide by 120 cm long, and it weighs 780 g - applies to both colorways. It is a tall, narrow proportion in every photograph. Measure your wall against those numbers, not just the picture.

Will it fill a wide wall?

No. It is narrow and tall. On a wide wall it will look stranded, and one of the arcs or swags in this collection is the right shape instead.

How do I hang it?

From the two metal D-ring fittings already screwed into the top of the wood batten — no separate hook to attach. The piece weighs 780 g, published in our size diagram, so a single rated picture hook or a small wall anchor at each ring is enough; nothing for the wall itself is included.

How do I clean it?

Vacuum on low suction, downwards, taking each layer separately so the front panel is not dragged across the back one.

Where does it work?

Beside a bed, above a small sofa, or above a console in an entry. All three are in the photographs, and all three give the long center drop somewhere to go.

Does the drop need clearance below?

Yes, more than most pieces here. The center panel hangs considerably lower than the outer curtain, so measure to the top of whatever furniture sits underneath.

Can it go in a bathroom?

Nothing in the source supports it, and a stained wood batten in a damp room is a poor idea.

Is anything included?

One wall hanging with its batten, and the batten already carries two pre-mounted D-ring fittings. No wall hooks, screws, anchors or instructions are included — you supply the fixing into the wall.

What should I hang on the wall above my bed?

One object at about two thirds the headboard width. This piece is tall and narrow rather than wide, so it belongs beside a bed rather than above it.

How do I hang a tapestry without putting holes in the wall?

Adhesive strips along the top edge, or a tension rod in a recess. This piece is on a rigid batten rather than loose fabric, so it needs two strips rather than a row of them.

Is macrame wall art still in style in 2026?

Plain textured pieces are. This one has almost no knotwork: a row of small V scallops at the join and straight fringe everywhere else, which is the quieter end of the look.

How do I make a rental apartment feel less bare?

One piece on each wall you actually look at, and warmer bulbs. Both are reversible and both change how a flat reads far more than furniture at the same cost.

How do you hang a wall hanging with a wooden dowel?

Cord over a single hook, or two hooks under the dowel ends. This one is on a flat batten rather than a round dowel, which is easier: two fixings at the same height and it sits flat.

What can I put on a big empty wall in my living room?

Something wide, or a group. A narrow piece like this one on a large wall will look stranded; it belongs beside furniture or in a tall gap.

How do you clean a fabric wall hanging?

Vacuum on the lowest suction, downwards. On this piece take each layer separately so the front panel is not dragged across the back one.

What is a good housewarming gift for someone in a first apartment?

Something light for a wall. A narrow piece suits more walls than a wide one, which matters when you have not seen the flat.

How do I decorate above a sofa without a big picture frame?

Textile. It has no glass, no frame and no weight to speak of, and above a sofa the light usually rakes sideways, which flatters texture and flattens a print.

What colors go with a green wall hanging?

Cream, rust, tan and raw wood. Deep green fights with cool gray and with bright white. The green option here is already paired with cream for that reason.

Are command hooks strong enough for a wall hanging?

For a light one, yes, if you buy the right rating and press for the full cure time. The failure mode is almost always rushing the cure, not underestimating the weight.

How do you get wrinkles out of a fringe wall hanging?

Hang it and wait two days. Gravity handles it. Steaming relaxes the cord and the layers stop sitting cleanly over each other, which is worse than the wrinkle.

Fabric wall art or a canvas print, which is better for a bedroom?

Fabric, in most bedrooms, because you see the wall in low raking light where texture reads and flat print does not. Canvas wins if the image matters more than the surface.

How do I stop a tapestry from curling at the bottom?

Hang it and leave it. Curling comes from flat packing and drops out under the piece's own weight. Weighting the hem distorts the shape instead of fixing it.

Is a tassel wall hanging safe in a nursery?

Above the reach line, yes. Within reach, loose cord is the concern rather than the fiber. There are no tassels on this piece despite our title; it is layered straight fringe.

How do I hang something on drywall without hitting a stud?

A plasterboard anchor or toggle rated above the weight. For a light narrow piece a simple plug is enough; what does not work is a bare nail, which pulls straight out.

What is the difference between macrame and a woven wall hanging?

Macrame is knotted, woven is threads crossing on a loom. This is mostly neither: straight cut fringe in layers, with knotwork only where the layers join.

What wall decor makes a small bedroom look taller?

Anything vertical. A tall narrow piece draws the eye up and makes the wall read higher, which is exactly this piece's proportion.

What are wedding backdrop ideas that are not flowers?

Textile, which photographs with depth and has a second life on a wall afterwards. Narrow pieces work better flanking a table than behind it.

How do I decorate a bedroom wall on a budget?

One piece at the right size, hung at the right height. Most budget bedroom walls fail on scale and height rather than on what was bought.

What wall art goes with beige walls?

Something with contrast, or it disappears. The green option registers against beige; the red is stronger still. Cream on beige needs strong side light to read at all.

How long does this take to ship?

Check the product page for current times. This ships from us rather than a workshop, so treat it as a standard import timeline rather than made to order.

Do woven wall hangings collect dust?

They do, along any horizontal surface. On a layered piece dust settles where the front panel overlaps the back, so take the layers separately when you vacuum.

How wide should wall art be over a 60 inch sofa?

About 40 inches, or two thirds of the sofa. A 60 inch sofa is a two seater, and this narrow piece would sit better at one end of it than centered above it.

What are green and cream wall decor ideas for a bedroom?

Let the green be the object and the cream be the wall, or the reverse. What does not work is a green piece on a green wall unless one of them is clearly deeper.

What can I put on the wall in a rental without nails?

Adhesive strips for light pieces, tension rods in any recess, and leaning larger things on furniture. Weigh the piece before choosing, which is the step people skip.

Is a woven wall hanging too rustic for a modern room?

Depends which one. Heavy knotted fringe reads rustic; flat color blocks on a clean batten, which is what this is, sit comfortably in a modern room.

How do I style a boho bedroom wall so it photographs well?

Light it from the side rather than the front. Texture photographs through shadow, so a lamp beside the piece does more for a photograph than the ceiling light does.

What decor makes an apartment feel finished?

Something on every wall you look at, curtains that reach the floor, and warm bulbs. It is almost never about buying more furniture.

Is cotton cord wall art safe around cats?

Hung high, yes. A long loose fringe at cat height will be climbed, and cats pull cord apart rather than just batting it. Height is the whole answer.

What is a good gift for someone moving into a dorm?

Something that hangs on one small fixing. Dorms restrict what you can put in the wall, so anything needing two fixings or a drill is a poor gift however nice it is.

How do I keep a wall hanging from fading in sunlight?

Keep it off the wall directly opposite a south facing window. No light fastness figure is published, and the red option will shift faster than the green.

What is the average price of a boho wall tapestry?

Printed tapestries are cheap and fiber pieces are not, which makes an average meaningless. Compare like for like: this is a layered fringe piece on a wood batten, not a printed panel.

What wall decor suits a wedding sweetheart table?

Two narrow pieces flanking the table rather than one behind it. That frames the couple instead of backing them, and narrow pieces like this one are the right shape for it.

Will hanging wall decor cost me my rental deposit?

Only if you do it badly. A filled and sanded nail hole is invisible; an adhesive strip pulled off quickly takes paint with it. The strip is the riskier of the two, not the nail.

Does the batten come with hooks already on it?

Yes. Two metal D-ring fittings are screwed into the top face of the batten - that part ships attached. What's not included is anything for the wall side of the fixing: no nail, screw, anchor or adhesive strip.

How much does it weigh?

780 g for either colorway, published in our size diagram. That's light enough for a single rated picture hook or a small drywall anchor at each of the two D-rings already on the batten.
