8 Interiors With Beni Ourain Rugs

Traditional Beni Ourain rugs are made by the Beni Ourain tribes in Morocco’s Atlas mountains. They feature abstract linear patterns, typically in dark brown or black on a white field and have taken on a new status in home decor.

First made popular in the West by Le Corbusier and other modern architects at the beginning of the 20th century, the popularity of the Beni Ourain shows no signs of flagging. No longer just eclectic, global pieces for the home, they are fast becoming new, modern classics for good reason — from traditional black and white spaces, to rooms with just a little pop of color, these geometric rugs are a great way to ground and define an interior, add a little texture and warmth to a room.  

Here are 8 of my favorite rooms where Beni Ourain rugs are used to create a unique statement in a range of interiors.

I stubled on this post of ours from back in 2015, and amazingly I’m still just as in love with the Beni Ourain Rug as I was then so had to share it again.

DIY Knot Pillow

Knot pillows are having a serious moment right now and while you can find some for a reasonable price, making your own will not only allow you to personalise it to a tee but you’ll be left feeling accomplished after making such a cute decor item for your home!  Follow along to Sugar & Cloth’s instructions to create your own. 

You Will Need:

14″ ( cm) X the full width of knit (stretchy fabric)

Ruler

Sewing machine

Sewing pins

Scossors

Wrapping Paper Cardboard Tube

Dry Polyester Fiber Fill


image

Cut two 7” (18cm) wide strips that are as long as the full width of the fabric (minimum of 54” or 137cm)

image

Form a sleeve of fabric by folding each strip in half the long way with the right sides facing one another, and pin both layers together.

Sew the length of the fabric at 3/8” (1cm) seam allowance using a zigzag or knit stitch. Sew along one of the short sides as well to close up the sleeve at one end. It’s important to use a zig zag stitch so that the stitches stretch along with the fabric when stuffing the sleeves.

image

Feed the fabric sleeve into one end of the cardboard tube, pull it out the other end and fold it back onto the cardboard tube turning the fabric sleeve right side out. 

Shirr the fabric sleeve completely onto one end of the cardboard tube. From the other end of the cardboard tube, stuff in small pieces of fill push it all the way to the far end of the tube using a ruler or wood dowel until it reaches the fabric sleeve. Try to keep the density of fill uniform throughout the fabric sleeve as you stuff.

Once the entire sleeve is stuffed, either tie off with a knot or sew up the open end of the sleeve with the sewing machine. (Don’t worry, both ends will be hidden once the knot is tied.)

image

Starting with just one fabric sleeve, tie the knot as illustrated above. Once the first sleeve is tied, “trace” the knot you just tied with the 2nd sleeve, by tucking it under and over as needed to make the two sleeves run parallel to one another. After the 2ndsleeve is in, adjust the sleeves so they form a tight knot, and tuck the 4 loose ends back into the pillow so they’re concealed.
