In this blog, we’ll dive into macrame, throw pillows, mood lighting, and everything you need to channel that 1970s boho dream. Let’s rock ‘n’ roll!

What You’ll Need to Recreate That Daisy Jones Boho Interior Design Look

Ready to channel those free-spirited, vintage vibes of Daisy Jones & The Six? Achieving that dreamy ‘70s boho aesthetic is all about mixing textures, patterns, and mid-century charm to create a laid-back, effortlessly cool space. Let’s dive deeper into each element you’ll need to pull off that rock ‘n’ roll, boho vibe.

Bohemian Textiles – Macrame!

Boho interiors are all about rich, earthy textures that instantly create a warm, welcoming vibe. To nail that Daisy Jones look, start with macrame wall hangings, woven baskets, and plant holders. These handmade touches scream ‘70s hippie-chic and add layers of texture to your space. The best part? You don’t need to spend a fortune—just a few balls of cord and the right skills! (Hint: check out my other blogs for DIY tutorials on making your own macrame wall hangings, plant hangers, and more.)

Layer in flowy fabrics like gauzy curtains, or drape them over furniture for that effortless, lived-in feel. And don’t forget the fringe—whether it’s on a throw, wall hanging, or even a pillow, fringe brings that vintage, tactile charm that boho style is all about!

Throw Pillows & Blankets

When it comes to throw pillows and blankets, the bolder, the better! Mix and match different patterns like paisley, mandalas, and psychedelic florals to create a visual feast for the eyes. Think of it as the ‘70s version of today’s maximalism. The key here is to avoid anything too “matchy.” Pair a vintage-inspired paisley cushion with a velvet one in a contrasting colour, or throw a crochet blanket over your sofa for that handmade feel. Every pillow and blanket should feel unique, but when combined, they’ll give your furniture that lived-in, eclectic look the show captures so well.

Mood Lighting

Lighting is where the magic happens! To create that moody, vintage dive-bar ambiance, go for warm, soft lighting—think low-wattage bulbs, warm-toned lamps, and candlelight for a cosy glow. Add in some statement lighting pieces, like a quirky mid-century chandelier or a boho pendant lamp with a woven or rattan shade. If you can find a vintage lava lamp or a beaded lampshade, even better! These pieces help capture the whimsical, laid-back essence of the ‘70s without overwhelming the space. Layer your lighting with floor lamps, candles, and table lamps to create that relaxed, intimate atmosphere.

Furniture

Furniture in the Daisy Jones style is a fusion of mid-century modern and bohemian comfort. If you’re lucky enough to stumble upon some Ercol or G-Plan pieces (both icons of mid-century British furniture), grab them!

These clean, sleek lines paired with low-key seating create the perfect balance. For example, an Ercol dining set with its smooth wood and simple curves blends beautifully with a laid-back, cushy sofa that invites you to sink in. Add a couple of oversized, slouchy armchairs or a distressed leather sofa to complete that “I’m-with-the-band” vibe. Keep it vintage, but not fussy—this look is all about creating a comfortable, stylish retreat.

Art, Rugs, and Wallpaper

Here’s where you can have the most fun—bring in your personality with psychedelic art prints, vibrant mandala rugs, and patterned wallpaper. The ‘70s were known for their bold use of colour and pattern, so don’t hold back. Throw down a boho-style rug with intricate patterns and textures to anchor your space. On the walls, think scallops, paisley, and florals, with colour palettes in warm earth tones like mustard yellows, burnt oranges, and deep greens. Don’t be afraid to mix and match patterns—boho style is all about embracing artistic freedom and layering in a way that feels natural, not contrived.

Final Thoughts

So there you have it! With the right textiles, furniture, and of course a little bit of macrame magic, your space can go from modern-day to 1970s rock ‘n’ roll haven. Whether you’re lounging in your crochet top or just binge-watching Daisy Jones & The Six (again), you’ll feel like you’ve stepped straight into the set. Time to channel those boho vibes and get your space Daisy Jones approved!
