Ribbon From

Displaying Art in the Home

If you have a favorite piece of art but are unsure as to how to display it, there are a couple of different options to choose from. Rather than settling with simply hanging your piece of art on the wall, choose from one of these creative ways to display art in your home instead.

Use Ribbon to Hang Art on the Wall
You can go beyond simply hanging a piece of art from a nail in the wall by using ribbon to hang the art instead. Carefully choose your ribbon so that it adds to the art and complements it well. Hang ribbon either from a hook or screw in the middle of the back of the art piece or from both sides. Use a small nail or place a hook on the wall to hang it from. Especially if you end up using more than one ribbon to hang it by, you want to be sure that the artwork hangs evenly on the wall.

Place Artwork on a Decorative Shelf
A great place to display art is on a decorative shelf. You should be able to find all different types of decorative shelves and ledges that will add to the beauty of the piece of art you want to display.

You want to be sure that the shelf you choose is the appropriate size for the piece you are going to display. Instead of displaying only one piece, you might also choose to display a collection of art on the shelf. Always ensure that youve properly installed the shelf or ledge on the wall before you place any artwork on it.

Use a Fireplace Mantel to Display Art
If you already have a nice fireplace mantel in your home, if makes a lot of sense to draw even more attention to it by placing a piece of artwork on it. Rather than hanging the artwork above the mantel, try placing the piece on the mantel and up against the wall.

Although the artwork should be smaller than the mantel, you dont want a piece thats so small that you dont really see the art against the larger mantel. Rather than just displaying the one small piece, place two or three smaller pieces on the mantel for a unique look. Make sure that the piece of art is secure. After all, you dont want it falling down off the mantel.

Find Unique Hangers for the Art
There are many different things you can use to hang artwork that you probably havent even thought of. Your favorite stocking holder makes a great hanger. Simply nail it to the wall and use it to hold your favorite piece of art.

For another unique artwork hanger, find a rope or a chain that you can hang from the ceiling or the top of the wall. You can actually hang a few pieces from iteither vertically or horizontally, depending on the length of the wall. You can actually create something like a clothesline, hanging your pieces of art across a blank wall.

Dont settle for the same old ways of hanging or displaying art in your home. No matter the style and theme of the room, there are plenty of creative and crafty ways to display your art. By getting creative, you can implement one of these ideas to display art in your home in an entirely new way.
