Ways to use denim decor in interior design.

Pillows

Denim pillowcases will last a very long time. This is one of the most economical ways to add zest to the interior.

Use several different shades of denim to create an interesting effect when creating pillows. You can sew a product from large or small patches, or use denim to decorate ready-made pillowcases.

If you sew a pocket on the pillow, you will get a place to store the remote control or small things. The finished product can also be complemented with braid, buttons and lace.

Rug

One pair of jeans is not enough here – depending on the size of the future product, you will need three pieces. They need to be washed and ironed: this way the new item will not have stains and stretched out areas.

To make a rug, you need to cut unnecessary trousers into strips and weave a rug out of them. Also, scraps cut into colorful squares or hexagons are often used for creation: the patchwork style implies brightness due to the use of fabrics of different shades.

If you are making a rug for the bathroom, it should have a non-slip base.

Organizer

Another practical and fairly simple idea. Schoolchildren, needlewomen, and gardeners have a lot of little things that they would like to organize.

An organizer with many pockets can be hung near a workplace, a makeup table, or in a hallway: the options for using it are limited only by your imagination.

A wall-mounted organizer made of denim will help you tidy up and keep the things you need at hand.

Pocket for cutlery

Such unusual products will be especially appreciated by casual style lovers, because this is an unusual approach to table setting. For a country picnic or a youth party – just what you need! You can sew napkins from unnecessary jeans, finishing them along the edges, or use the back pockets for serving cutlery.

You can also sew hot pads and potholders: the main thing is that there is a filler between the layers of fabric – synthetic padding, batting or felt.

Jar decoration

You can make interesting and roomy organizers with pockets and fasteners. Just wrap a regular jar with a trouser leg and fold the edges. Decorated containers are suitable for storing office supplies, cosmetics, tools, threads and other small items.

Interior Boxes and Baskets

Denim fabric is often used to decorate cardboard boxes: such covers can be easily sewn independently to the desired size. The items can be supplemented with handles and painted with fabric paints using a stencil.

To sew a basket, you will need three circles and three rectangles of denim, foam rubber for stability, and cotton material for the inner cover. The parts need to be sewn together and decorated.

Flower Pots

Textile decor is often used to decorate pots for indoor plants. It is not difficult to create a cover from jeans with your own hands. With its help, you can hide an unsightly flowerpot or simply make a composition of identical flowerpots that will decorate the windowsill.

Cut the stitched seams of jeans into strips and wrap them around the flowerpot, gluing them on.

Furniture upholstery

If the upholstery of chairs, benches or armchairs is worn out, denim fabric can serve as an excellent alternative. Unnecessary clothes can be used as furniture covers: it will be practical and creative.

Depending on the quality of the material used, the upholstery will last for many years, and if done carefully, the furniture will become the main decoration of the room.

Wall Decoration

The possibilities for using old jeans are unlimited. The blue fabric is recognizable, so the decor made from it is stylish and “talking”. From denim scraps you can sew hearts, toys and letters for the wall, make feathers for a dream catcher or garlands in the form of triangular flags. They can be used to decorate the headboard in the bedroom or a child’s room.

Pouf

The strong fabric is also suitable for creating upholstered furniture. The denim patches need to be sewn together, leaving a “pocket” through which the pouf needs to be filled with rags or synthetic padding. After stuffing, the hole is sewn up.

The type of parts depends on the shape of the future product: square ones are suitable for creating a cube-shaped ottoman, and a rectangle and circle are suitable for a soft cylinder.

Bedspread

You can sew a magnificent bedspread from scraps of denim clothes. Fabrics of different shades look much more interesting than plain ones, but the density of the fabric should be approximately the same. The easiest way for beginners is to sew squares together. More experienced needlewomen can connect strips or polyhedrons.

A solid piece of fabric to the size of the bedspread must be sewn to the back side so that the internal seams are not visible, and after finishing the work, wash the product in a delicate mode and iron it.

Decor of things

You can use denim scraps to frame mirrors and photo frames. Some craftsmen create real paintings from fabric of different colors, connecting the parts and gluing them to the base. You can also make an original lampshade for a table lamp from old jeans: you will get an exclusive interior item.

Don’t rush to throw away old jeans: even if you don’t wear them anymore, the material will come in handy for implementing interesting design ideas.
