We have mentioned a bit on how to make your dining table look marvelous here. Let’s move on to other parts of your house.

Anywhere you wish to put it, ikat fabric, you have to make sure that it has the same tone with your whole theme of room. Don’t push an elegantly ethnical ikat in your cheerfully colorful kids’ room. You know what, some ikat does look bright, too. Just get those for your kids’ room.

In the living room, get an ikat with smaller size, put it in a frame and hang it on the wall. You can even buy several sheets either with the same motifs or color and make them a series on your wall. That makes a definitely stylish decor.

Take a look at the picture of table runner on the right side of this post. Actually, you can also use it as you sofa cover. It looks beautiful on your red or white sofa.

It is easy to create an alegant and stylish room when you use ikat. Especially with Indonesian Ikat.

They are mostly of 140 cm wide and 260 long. So, if you happen to have a long dining table, one of those ikat fabrics might look terrific on it.

They have no napkin, yet it gives you the liberty to be more creative. Let’s say, you choose the one with red, yellow and black colors. Then, you can have napkins with one of those colors. You can even have those three colors and use them by turns.

These tablecloths are combinations of light and dark colors. The dark color would be perfect should you have kids. They don’t show unwanted spots.

What is amazing about these tablecloths, not only are they functional, but also able to add beauty to your dining room with its ethnical look.

It was also mentioned that Michael S Smith used ikat on his beautifully designed library as you can see in the picture below:

There we can see a quilt of a traditional Indonesian style covering the sofa and cushions in both Indian fabrics and Turkish ikat.

Will Mr. Smith use ikat in on Obama’s new home? We’ll see.
