My fascination and indulgence with textile was evident in my last home and I will undoubtedly continue this love affair in my new home. Incorporating textile into ones décor is a sure way to enliven the space. Designer, and textile artist, Lotta Kühlhorn(pictured above) shares her ideas on how textile can make a big difference in our every day life below:

Whatever you can do with paper, you can do the same with textiles – cover shelves, hang in a frame, even wrap around a bucket or a flowerpot.

Find a pattern you love, then repeat
Repeating patterns is a great idea – on a chair pad, a lampshade, a cushion. You can also show them off on a grand scale: let textiles cover an entire wall like wallpaper.
