Before you start hammering nails, take a moment to pick the best spot for your bamboo fan wall decor.

Ideal wall types:

  • Above a bed or headboard

  • Over a console table or bench

  • As part of a boho gallery wall

Make sure the wall has:

  • Good lighting (natural light enhances bamboo tones)

  • Enough width to accommodate the full fan span (typically 40″–63″)

📌 Tip: The ideal hanging height is where the center of the fan aligns slightly above eye level or just above your focal furniture.
