In any room I design, I always try to incorporate natural texture for warmth. In recent years, jute has become my go-to natural fiber for the home. Whether it's spread out on the floor in the form of a rug or wrapped around the tiniest of knobs, jute can help turn the stalest of spaces into a cozy retreat.
With its many desirable attributes — heck, the stuff is inexpensive, biodegradable, renewable, recyclable and durable — it's easy to see why jute is becoming a popular choice in interior design. Today you will find it gracing rugs, pillows, baskets and more. Here are a few of my favorite jute decor picks. — Dana from House Tweaking

How unique is this iron daybed? With its whimsical design and jute cushion, it'd be the perfect dainty addition to a girl's bedroom.
Jute lends a natural texture that can give almost any space a sense of comfort. I'd love to see this runner in an all-white kitchen to warm things up a bit.
Constructed of a wool and jute blend, this London flag pillow is a neutral take on the traditional red, white and blue Union Jack. It'd look great tossed on a worn leather sofa.
We all know jute twine has many household uses, from gardening to gift wrapping, but this convenient storage tin makes dispensing easy and handsome.
Who knew a jute rug could be so colorful? I'd layer these festive stripes over a neutral sisal rug for a cozy, casual effect.
I'd prop open an interior or exterior door with this knot door stopper for a welcoming nautical touch.
Forget boring brown! This isn't your typical jute bag. With its navy ikat print, this roomy tote is perfect for a trip to the farmers' market.
Inexpensive and durable, jute webbing has a multitude of creative purposes. I'd use it to add a simple border to plain, store-bought curtain panels or as embellishment on a linen pillowcase.
Bring woven texture to windows with roll-up jute blinds. I'd layer breezy white curtains over them for an easy, beachy look.
I don't particularly like literal holiday decor. I prefer to decorate with items and materials that go along with the neutral color palette I have in place in my home. Wired burlap ribbon is so versatile that you can use it for nearly any celebration — create wreaths, napkin rings, bows, vase sleeves and more.
A large basket placed next to a sofa in the family room is a great spot for corralling the kids' toys. The handles make carrying it to the kids' bedrooms or playroom a cinch at the end of the day. No kids? Pile folded blankets into the basket for easy reaching on cool nights.
I adore the worn print and texture of this whale pillow. I picture it hanging out in a bunk room of a cottage.
This is for a boy's room. 'Nuff said.
I'm obsessed with these smocked jute curtain panels. They'd be lovely in a feminine bedroom with lots of natural light filtering in.
How awesome would this coffee-sack-turned-beanbag look in a tween's room? You could even base the entire room's color scheme on it: tan, kelly green, lemon green and lots of white.
I love the idea of hanging this temporary, jute elephant wall decal in a gender-neutral nursery.
I'd use this rope-wrapped table lamp to bring posh texture to a living room side table. A pair of them atop a console flanking a wall mirror in an entryway would be pretty sweet as well.
This clever hanging fishnet holds a glass jar. I'd fill the jar with water and flowers to act as a rustic vase, or I might light it up with a tea light for indoor or outdoor ambiance.
Grouping several hanging jars together would produce a more dramatic effect.

I could customize the look of a dresser or cabinet with this handmade rope-knot knob.
Oh, how I could organize the little things in life with these crocheted jute bowls! I'd place one in the foyer for keys, one near the kitchen sink for jewelry and one in the bathroom for cotton balls.
