Decorating Ideas With an Interior Lattice

Lattice can commonly be found in outdoor or garden areas as supportive and decorative elements for flowers. Lattice can take the same whimsical element to help you form decorative pieces for nearly any room in your home. Providing both decorative and functional aspects, lattice is an affordable and charming material to use in your interior decor.
  1. Wainscoting

    • Lattice can be added to any room of the house as a wall treatment. Cut the lattice to about half of the height of your wall. Attach it to the wall and cover the bottom half of each wall. The lattice will take the place of a traditional wainscoting treatment.

    Headboard

    • Lattice can serve as a practical and affordable headboard, especially in a Victorian or garden-themed bedroom. Cut the lattice to the desired size and attach it directly to the wall behind the bed.

    Potholder

    • Add lattice to your kitchen to provide a decorative focal point and valuable storage area. Lattice extended from the ceiling can become a useful potholder that helps maximize the square footage in your kitchen. Screw hooks into four corners of your lattice piece. Screw four hooks in the ceiling, the same distance apart as the hooks from your lattice. Hang metal chains from the ceiling hooks, attached the chains to the lattice, then adjust the potholder to the desired height. Hang pots on more hooks attached to the lattice.

    Flower Holder

    • Bring the outdoors in by using lattice to hold silk flowers. Hang the lattice in your living room or sunroom. Intersperse flowers in the lattice holes, or string garlands of ivy or flowers around the lattice

    Art Holder

    • Lattice can transform into a prominent focal feature to display your children’s artwork. Paint the lattice the color of your choice or leave it untreated. Use clothespins or paper clamps to hang your children’s artwork from the lattice.

    Windows

    • Lattice adds several decorative options for windows. Cover the inside of the window to form a decorative window pane. Flank the window with a piece of lattice on each side to form original shutters. Flower containers covered with lattice can form window boxes to hang inside or outside the window.

    Furniture

    • Lattice can be added to the side or backing of most furniture items with straight lines. Cover the sides of bookshelves, the front of a bar or the backing of open shelving to give your old furniture a new look.
