Is there anyone else who enjoys going antique shopping? You squeal a bit inside when you find something new to add to your collection, right? You’re really welcome here if your answer is yes! I love showcasing and decorating my home with far too many vintage items. In order for you to appreciate your best finds as well, today we’re going to present some Creative Ways to Display Your Collections with Style.
Create a Gallery Wall
The most obvious place to organize objects such as clocks, artwork, plates, or record albums is on the wall. Just a few of your best pieces should be on show to keep the attention on the artifacts themselves. Too many to pick from? Replace them often to make a change.
Sort by Color
You probably have a lot of accessories in that shade if you have a favorite color. Combining them adds instant impact to a display, and if you really want to go all out, try matching the surface they’re resting on as well.
Employ Floating Shelves
Globes, seashells, and old bottles are examples of larger items that look good on shelves or picture ledges but don’t belong on a wall. When arranged carefully on a shelf, even toy figurines can have an unexpectedly sophisticated appearance. A tip for an even more unified effect is to arrange the things in your collection according to color.
Cabinets and Cloches
When showcasing an item in your collection, you may need to handle it differently. We adore the way the liquor cabinet showcases the shot glass collection and beneath it, baseballs are elevated to museum-caliber status by being placed beneath glass cloches.
Ignore the Guidelines
Who said that magnets belonged on the refrigerator? If you were to look upon this collection each time you went snack hunting, it could appear to be too much. Magnets become works of beauty when given a spotlight of their own! Your collection will appear more uniform and less cluttered if it is organized neatly.
Make art Out of Books
Books may be arranged from random to rainbow simply by matching the color of their spines. Stacking some (or all) horizontally and arranging them according to size are two more methods to create interest.
Hang to highlight
A personal gem collection can be equally as valuable as the Crown Jewels, even though they may not be as valuable in terms of carat value. Necklaces can be incorporated into the room’s design with a charming series of hooks, all without contributing to the tangled mess that frequently hides at the bottom of jewelry boxes.
Plate up
There are many ways to arrange plates on a wall but one easy option is to combine them together in a cluster and use a common color to keep them from appearing too disorganized. To strengthen the link, consider incorporating the accent color into another piece of furniture, such as a chair.
Bottle It
One of life’s little pleasures is having beautiful toiletries and if you’re devoted to a certain brand, they can look really chic when arranged in matching containers. Adding a mirror behind the bookcases enhances the opulent atmosphere. Get ideas to expand your collection; matching sets are the perfect gift.
Utilize resources
When you return home, textiles you purchased abroad are sometimes boxed up and forgotten about. However, they can also be used as tablecloths, throws, and as seen here wall hangings to create an exotic vibe and, even better, as a fun way to remember exotic travels.
If you follow the guidelines above, you’ll find some creative ways to display your collections.
