7. Woven Rope Coil Baskets
Textural warmth is a core element of modern interior design, helping to soften hard architectural lines. You can introduce organic texture by creating a coiled rope basket designed to house nursery pots of medium-to-large houseplants.
Take a thick length of natural cotton clothesline or sisal rope. Using a heavy-duty sewing machine set to a wide zigzag stitch, coil the rope tightly into a flat circle for the base, then gradually angle the coils upward to form the walls of the basket. You can introduce subtle pops of color by wrapping select sections of the rope in embroidery floss before stitching them into place.
