Heavy Metal

Aiming High
Don't forget the fifth wall of your room, otherwise known as the ceiling! By painting it an unexpected color, applying wallpaper, or treating it with a unique texture, the room's highest point can make a grand statement.

Knotty and Nice
The '70s are back—in macramé form, that is. From plant hangers to coasters to wall hangings, knot tying is oh-so-on-trend.
The DIY trend is stronger than ever, with people creating their own unique decor (like these simple yet stunning succulent place settings), body products, and homemade gifts.

In Stitches
Large-scale knits are big these days, from chunky throws to giant scarves. And speaking of all things DIY, this extra-thick woolen blanket was given an extra dose of style with some hand-dyeing, courtesy of materials from a holiday tree and winter decor. Get the ombré dyeing project how-to to replicate the look at home.
