How to choose the right product

Quick answer: match material and size to the item you are decorating—light fabrics need small, soft tassels; heavier textiles work with larger, sturdier options. Consider color, attachment style and whether the tassel will face wear.

In most cases, check the loop or ring for sewing or hardware if you need to clip it on. Measure drop length and compare fiber type—natural fibers look matte, synthetic fibers offer more sheen and colourfastness.
