Cane furniture, decor and accessories are making a big comeback in interior design. With its woven texture, natural look, and rustic charm, it’s easy to see why. Whether you’re looking for an easy way to add a bit of Boho style to your home, or you’re looking to embrace the trend in a more subtle way, there are lots of ways to incorporate cane into your home decor.


From cane baskets, to mirrors and planters, cane decor pieces can help add an interesting, eclectic look to any space. 
Check out these ideas on how to style cane decor in your home!

Create a Boho vibe with cane baskets

Cane baskets are the perfect way to add texture and character to any room. Whether you have a large wall basket or a smaller table basket, these items can be used to store anything from books to blankets to toys. Place one in the living room, bedroom, or study room for a stylish, functional piece.

Hang a cane mirror

Cane mirrors are the perfect way to add a unique touch to any wall. Choose a statement mirror or a smaller one if you’re short on space. You can hang them over a console table or you can go for a more traditional look by hanging them over a dresser. Either way, they’ll be a great accent in any room.

Get in touch with nature, in a unique way 

Cane planters

Cane planters are a great way to introduce a tropical theme into your living space. They make a great addition to any home, both inside and outside. Use a large cane planter to add a touch of nature to your living room, or hang a few smaller ones in your backyard to create a beautiful outdoor space. They’re perfect for displaying plants and flowers, and can easily be dressed up with colourful pots and accessories.

Don’t go overboard

Cane has been making its way into our homes for a while, but it's essential to keep this look in check because it can easily feel dated if overdone. Given its long history, it is fair to say that cane is timeless, but it should be balanced with other colours, textures, and materials. Cane decor shines as a statement piece, and going overboard and filling your space with cane will make it lose its impact.

Include other elements with cane


Because of its rustic looking and beautifully made texture, cane looks best when incorporated with greenery and nature inspired patterns and other similar elements like jute, cotton, etc. In addition, cane appears best when exposed to sunlight. So feel free to use a lot of it in areas with lots of natural light and/or indoor-outdoor spaces when planning the layout of your rooms and choosing where to include cane items

Brighten up your home
