Nautical Decor Using Rope

Nautical decor is perfect for summer no matter where you live. Use jute rope or twine to make nautical decor in just minutes from any item that you have around your home. I have a few examples for you below of how a touch of rope can add a beach feel to any item. These items are just examples and this technique can be used to transform any object.

What You Will Need

  • Objects to spruce up with jute rope. Examples: picture frames, paper mache boxes, clear plastic containers, old vases, etc.
  • Hot glue gun and glue sticks
  • Jute rope or twine
  • Other beach-themed decor items for embellishments

Instructions

  • Gather the item or items you plan on decorating with the rope. May sure the items are free of dust, price stickers, or anything else that might prevent the glue and rope from adhering to the surface.
  • Start by wrapping and layering the jute rope on to the object, securing with hot glue along the way.
  • If you are wrapping a round object, check to be sure the rope is wrapped level around the object.
  • Add embellishments if desired.
