Accent Wall Hangings

In your crochet art, you can be as creative as you want. Crochet a wall hanging to hang in your living room, bedroom or kitchen. If you are planning on having company over, make a few extra hanging pieces and use them as decorations for the party.

When choosing colors for your crochet wall hangings, always keep in mind that the space of where they will hang will affect how light or dark they look. 

For example, if you want something light colored but have dark walls then it would be best to not make it too bright so that it doesn’t stand out against the walls too much.

Unique Throw Pillows

You can make your own throw pillow to give your home some flair. If you’re feeling adventurous, try making a unique one-of-a-kind piece. Just use a simple pattern or make it up as you go! You can use any type of yarn and color that suits your style and taste, depending on what kind of effect you want to achieve.

Once it’s finished crocheting, cover with a pillowcase for extra comfort and style points.

Make Your Own String Lights

The next time you want to add some string lights to your home, try making your own. There are two types of string lights: those that use incandescent bulbs and those that use LED bulbs. 

The biggest difference between them is the amount of energy they consume and how much heat they generate. Incandescent bulbs cost less than LED bulbs, but they also use more electricity which means higher electric bills for you every month.

If you’re ready to start making your own string lights, here’s what you’ll need:

• a needle and thread (or needle-nose pliers)
• rope or twine (at least 12 feet long)
• clear glass jars in various sizes

Throw Blankets Of Every Color

Throw blankets are a great way to add color to your room without being too fussy or loud. You can make them in any size or shape, and they work well when you’re looking for something quick and easy (see how we did that?).

You can make throw blankets with any type of yarn, but wool and acrylics tend to be the most popular choices. 

If you’re looking for something soft, cozy, and warm and yes I’m talking about more than just the temperature wool throws will be your best option. They also come in many different weights so that you can choose how thick or thin you want your blanket/throw/blankie/.

When it comes down to it: A thicker blanket is going to keep you warmer than a thin one because it traps more air between its fibers (cue science lesson).

Make every room in your home stand out with crochet. Our guide on adding personality to your home with crochet showcases unique and creative crochet projects that allow you to express your personal style.

Gorgeous Pillow Shams

Pillow shams are decorative pillows that cover the top of a pillow. They’re usually used in pairs, with one on each side of the bed. You can make your own pillow shams by crocheting or sewing them from other fabrics. 

They’re available in many different styles, and they’re great if you want to add personal touches to your bedroom decorating scheme!

Get Crafty With Candle Holders

Crochet your way to a beautiful home with these cozy candle holders.

Choose the right yarn for your candle holder. If you’re making a square or rectangle, choose worsted weight cotton. For a round candle holder, try using novelty yarn in whatever color suits your décor best.

Choose the right hook for your project. If you’re crocheting a square or rectangle, use an H hook; if you’re making something round like an apple or pineapple shape, use an I hook; otherwise, stick with an F hook for consistency when working different shapes together later on in the process (you’ll see what I mean).

Creative Coasters And Napkin Rings

Crocheting coasters and napkin rings is a simple way to add some flair to your home. You can use any type of yarn, but it’s best to pick something that will stand up well against moisture—like cotton or wool.

Choose a stitch that’s easy enough for beginners and you’ll be able to make these in no time! To keep your work looking fresh, try crocheting with different colors or adding embellishments like buttons or beads.

You can use crochet items as decorations around the house—just stick them onto walls with double-sided tape or magnets!

Plant Pot Covers

Whether you’re looking to add a little color and style to your home, or just want something fun and different for yourself, crochet plant pot covers are a great way to do it. They can be made in any size to fit any size pot or container. 

There are many different patterns available online that you can use as inspiration for making your own unique designs. You can choose from a variety of materials such as yarn, cotton, acrylic and so on – whatever suits your purposes best!

Fringed Bed Skirts

When it comes to crochet bed skirts, you have many options. You can choose from a wide variety of colors, designs and materials. 

A lot of people opt for a patterned or knitted look that looks more like a throw blanket than anything else. This is a good choice if you are trying to create an elegant look in your bedroom or living room.

Depending on the type of bed skirt you choose, there are different methods for finishing the edges so that they do not fray over time. 

For example, if your bed skirt has fringe along its edge then all you need to do is tuck the fringes under each other when looking at them from above (see picture). 

If your bed skirt does not have fringe but instead has ruffles or anything else along its edge then there are several different ways you can finish off those edges without having them unravel over time:

• Use fabric glue with no sewing required! Just apply some glue where ever there’s supposed to be stitching (so just on top) then wait for it dry before using again – maybe one day per week until fully dry? How long depends totally on humidity level outside vs inside;

• Sewing machine works fine too but takes longer since stitching must be done slowly so as not damage underlying material while still keeping stitches tight enough together;
