Easy ones for beginners use single and double crochet only; statement pieces trail long flower vines down a wall. Here are designs for every skill level and room, and how to hang them so they stay neat.

These pieces use only basic stitches and small amounts of yarn, so they are a good first project.

Crochet wall hanging flowers

Flower vines are the most popular crochet wall hanging designs: flowers and leaves joined along a cord and hung from a wooden rod, often finished with tassels or beads at the bottom. Mixing two or three shades of one colour (red, coral and peach, for example) looks richer than one flat colour.

For an example of a finished piece, see this Crochet Wall Hanging with hibiscus flowers, trailing leaves and beaded tassels.

Crochet wall decor ideas by room

Different rooms suit different crochet wall decor ideas.

Bedroom: soft colours, moon or star hangings, a mandala above the bed.
Child's room: name garlands, rainbows, animal faces, bunting.
Lounge: one large statement piece in colours that pick up the cushions.
Entrance: a long flower vine or a pocket organiser for keys and letters.
Kitchen corner: a small plant hanger or a herb-themed hanging.

Which yarn is best for crochet wall decor?

Cotton yarn holds its shape well and shows stitch detail, so it's the most common choice for wall hangings. Acrylic is cheaper and comes in bright colours. For a rustic look, add jute or wooden beads; for sparkle, glass beads on the tassels.

How to hang a crochet wall hanging

Hung properly, a crochet piece stays neat and keeps its shape for years.

Tie the hanging cord to both ends of the rod so it hangs level.
Use one nail or an adhesive hook rated for the weight.
Keep it away from damp walls and direct, strong sun, which fades colours.
Dust it with a soft brush; spot clean gently with a damp cloth — don't machine wash.
