Why tea towels make perfect wall decor

Textiles are back in interior design. They add warmth, colour and a playful touch to your walls. Tea towels with cheerful prints, illustrations or patterns look great in the kitchen, but just as good in the living room, hallway, bedroom or kids’ room. With a few frames you can easily create a collage that instantly stands out.

Framed tea towels: here’s how

The best thing about this interior trend: it’s really easy to do yourself. Here’s how:

  1. 1. Choose your tea towels. Go for bright colours, animal prints, words or graphic patterns. Think of the sea creatures from Sealife, the cheerful slogans from Streetstyle or the illustrations from El Restaurante.
  2. 2. Pick the right frame. Choose a frame that suits the size of your tea towel. Iron the tea towel first so it sits nice and smooth behind the glass.
  3. 3. Create a collage. Lay your frames out on the floor first and move them around until the composition feels right. Mix large frames with small photo frames, such as our velvet Lotería frames or the Kitsch Royale frames.
  4. 4. Hang it all up. Start with the largest frame in the middle and work your way outwards.

Our favourites to frame: the Sealife lobster, the Streetstyle Kitsch Kitchen and the El Restaurante tasty taco.

A budget-friendly way to add colour

Large artworks can be quite expensive. Tea towels, on the other hand, are an affordable way to give your home a fresh look regularly. Swap prints or colours with the seasons and create a new atmosphere every time.

Tea towels are usually made of cotton or linen, which gives them a soft, warm look that suits popular interior styles such as Scandinavian, colourful eclectic, retro, bohemian and modern vintage.

Don’t be afraid to combine different designs. It’s the mix of colours and illustrations that makes this wall decor unique. Think flowers from Mercado de Flores, slogans from Streetstyle, illustrations from El Restaurante and animal prints from Sealife. Using frames in different sizes gives your wall even more character.

Colourful tea towels as a real eye-catcher

Whether you go for one bold print or a complete gallery wall, colourful tea towels bring any room to life. It’s a simple DIY that quickly creates a personal, creative atmosphere, without renovations or high costs.
