How We Home: Textiles as Art

Are you looking for the perfect piece of wall art to complete your gallery wall? What about a unique piece to be the finishing touch to the perfectly curated room? We know how daunting the task of finding great wall art can be which is why we want to let you in on a secret that can change your decorating game.

Any time that we go on a trip, one of the souvenirs we look for is vintage textiles. While we have numerous ways that we like to utilize these treasures, one of our favorites is to turn scraps into textile art. In the last several years this trend has been sweeping the design world and is the perfect way to tie in pieces from all over the globe. Whether you are taking a scrap of fabric from a vintage blouse from Guatemala, an Otomi Tapestry from Mexico, or religious ceremony cape from Peru, creating a piece of textile art can be personal and fun!

Check out the pieces of textile art we have styled in the past to get your own inspiration!
