How to Decorate Walls With Old Plates

A decorative collection of old plates shouldn’t be kept away, hidden from view. Instead of keeping them stacked up in the china cabinet, turn your walls into a display space for your collection. Whether you have two or 20, colorful old plates add depth and artistic appeal to the wall. Choose an arrangement that fits best with existing accessories on the wall.

  Plan the location of your old plates on your wall. Mark the locations where you want them to hang by making a small X with a pencil.

  Install a wire plate hanger at each planned location for the old plates. This gives the appearance that the plates are suspended directly on the wall. Use a drill to make a starter hole in the wall if necessary. Screw the plate hangers into place.
