Nautical Home Decor: Rope is the New Black

According to style experts, rope is making a buzz in the trend market, and the most obvious sign is an abundance of rope accessories showing up all over from department store shelves to do-it-yourself craft boards. 

When it comes to the latest trends in nautical home decor, you know that we got you covered. Take a look at how rope is being used, and learn how to make the look work for you.

Rope decorating trends: Rope is versatile enough to use in any room of the house or your office. Of course, it is still a natural choice for beach cottages, but it does not have to be limited to just the obvious uses. After all, it is so sturdy and affordable.

You can use rope for wall hangings, table accessories, picture frames and more. In addition to readily made items, you might even want to try making some of your own rope crafts. Some easy projects for beginners are wrapping recycled bottles or tin cans with coiled rope and glue.

Where to find rope accessories: We specialize in nautical decor and gifts so you will always find a wide range of rope items and more. Tie a decorative rope fender to your beach chair now and hang it on your Christmas tree at the end of the year. Our popular fish nets always make a great catch!

Caring for rope: Of course, rope items in your home or office enjoy a sheltered life compared to rope on ships, but some of the same basics apply when it comes to keeping them in top shape. You can clean many rope accessories with very mild detergent but avoid using bleach. If you are working with loose rope, keep it coiled up rather than letting it lie around loose and get tangled.

Decorating with rope is one way to feel closer to the sea even when you are indoors. Contact us for the highest quality furniture, accessories and gifts, plus a friendly service.
