2: Consider Wall And Tapestry Sizing
Notes:
-
Making It Fit:
The size of your wall and choice of tapestry should complement each other. Wall tapestries have different sizes and designs. If you’re hanging a tapestry above your living room furniture, choose a tapestry whose length is a few inches above the furniture. For a bare wall, choose a large-sized tapestry to make it the focal point in the room.
- As you purchase your tapestry, consider how the size affects the look of the room, because large size tapestries tend to make the room look smaller.
- The orientation of your tapestry also affects how a wall looks, placing your tapestry horizontally makes the wall look larger, while hanging a small elongated tapestry tends to increase the height of the wall.

4: Consider The Location Of The Tapestry
Notes:
-
Where to Hang:
The location on where you want to hang your tapestry is important, consider the room’s purpose and if it’s aesthetically enhancing, rather than making it appear over-designed.
- For your bedroom tapestry, choose a large one that’s calming in nature, this could be an image of a blue sky or a beach full of waves. Considering that your bedroom is a place to relax, these pieces serve its purpose, it is ideal to place the tapestry on top of your headboard.
