Profiling current design trends is one of our favorite activities here at Decoist, and today’s post is as colorful as they get! Since it’s clear that rainbow motifs are here to stay, we’re letting them take center stage this winter. Not only are they perfect for all seasons, they add an extra burst of brightness during the darkest, chilliest time of the year. From beautifully crafted wall hangings to hand-painted glassware, check out the full spectrum of design possibilities below…

Once again, Etsy is the perfect source for colorful embellishments. This Rainbow Tassel Pillow Cover from Cheseapeake Cottage juxtaposes vivid trim with a crisp white cover:
You can purchase items with the tassels and pom poms sewn on, or you can do the decorating yourself! We can think of many places to put Holy Frida’s pom pom tassels. Doorknobs, drawer nobs and plant baskets, to name a few!
