Boho curtains for your home yoga room

Lightweight cotton curtains offer light-filtering privacy and a sense of softness. By hanging gauzy boho curtains at your yoga room windows, you’ll have a visual reminder of easy, free-flowing movement. On the other hand, yoga studio curtains don’t have to be full length. In fact, you might prefer a room in which the sunshine pours in! In that case, let in more light and consider a bohemian beaded valance with dangling gems that sparkle in the sunshine.  

Cushions and pillows for your home yoga studio

Cushions are an important element in any yoga space. Not only do they add to your yoga room decor, but they’re also functional as props. You may find that you knees appreciate a cushion during floorwork, or you might want a few cushions on hand for a restorative yoga session. They should fill you with delight just as much as they fill your space with beauty! Here are a few gorgeous block printed throw pillow covers that deliver good vibes:

You’ll find it easier to focus in room that doesn’t feel chaotic, so having easy storage to streamline your yoga gear will help keep things organized and clutter-free. How do you store your yoga equipment? A few storage baskets in the corner of your home yoga studio can make the perfect hideaway for your mat, strap, blocks, and bolster.
