Off the Wall

For various reasons, sometimes you can't hang your artwork, what do you do? Live without? Absolutely not, I can show you some ideas for displaying artwork and mirrors that are off the wall!

1. Small easels or plate holders are great for displaying artwork, they lift it up and give your pieces an important look while allowing you to place them in areas where you might need a burst of color. I like to put a piece of art under a decorative table to fill an otherwise empty space.

2. Another fun way to display artwork is to lean several pieces against a wall along a mantel or table. Vary the sizes and shapes of the frames for a more dramatic look; this also works with various mirrors to really give some impact! Try this on a bookshelf to fill in an otherwise flat display.

3. Looking for a different way to display photos? Try a mobile. These neat displays hold a bunch of pictures. Hang it from the ceiling so they don't take up table space and it fills an empty spot with some fun snapshots.
