How to Style Tassels: 5 Ideas, Plus How to Make Your Own

I want to share some easy ways to style tassels in your home. Tassels are those cute little decorations that can add a touch of charm to just about anything, and I'm excited to show you how to incorporate them into your space.

Some people believe that hanging a tassel on a doorknob can bring protection and good fortune – how cool is that?

You can easily find decorative tassels at thrift stores or online, and they're super easy to attach to your curtains. Just tie them back, and you're good to go!

1. Liquor Bottle Decor

I decorate liquor bottles for serving with jewelry or tassels to dress up the presentation of the bottle at parties. They elevate your party decor.

2. Lamp Decor

Another fun way to use tassels is to add them to your lamps. I love mixing different decor styles in my home, and adding tassels to a lamp is a fun way to add a boho twist to your space.

You can find tassels in all sorts of colors and styles, so you can easily find ones that match your decor. Attach them to the lampshade or base using hot glue, and you've got a unique and stylish lamp!

3. Thrifted Basket Makeover

Have an old, broken basket lying around? Don't toss it – give it a makeover with some tassels! Start by removing any hardware and lightly sanding the basket.

Then, give it a coat of paint in your favorite color.

Once the paint is dry, use a hot glue gun to attach thrifted tassel trim around the top edge of the basket.

It's a simple and affordable way to breathe new life into an old piece of decor.

4. DIY Tassels

Can't find the perfect tassels for your project? No problem – you can make your own! All you need is some yarn and a few basic supplies.

Wrap the yarn around a book.

Tie it off at the top once you’ve achieved the desired thickness, then slide the tassel off the book.

Tie off the top once again, to create a yarn-ghost shape.

Cut through the bottom to create your tassel.

Then, attach them to the edge of a throw blanket using a needle and thread.

It's a fun and customizable way to add a personal touch to your decor.

5. Wall Art

Finally, consider using tassels as wall art.
