Discover strength in numbers. Grouping items yields big impact. For smaller items, such as creamware gelatin molds or vintage jewelry pins, arrange the grouping on a silver tray.
Explore new heights. Try stacking a few items from one collection on top of a cabinet.
Organize by color. When displaying a number of different items, color is a great unifier, like this book collection below.
Don't forget about the walls. Most anything can be hung or mounted. Give tabletop items new attention on a wall, or line plate rails with vintage photos.
Love the ideas. I'm always looking for something new and exciting to do with all my treasures I haul home.
ReplyDeleteI'm trying to figure out how I can come to your sale next week and get out of helping my mother with her garage sale. It's going to be tricky!
Hey I'm having a Farm Chicks give away this week on my blog. Stop by and enter.
Have a great week!
I love the books arranged by color and the wall of plates. :)
ReplyDeleteThese are pretty awesome ideas...I might actually end up arranging my books my color. Seems like a good way to brighten up the plain white book case. Actually, maybe you'd be interested in checking out a feature Im doing on my site on ultra kitschy salt and pepper shaker collectors. Folks seem to use them more as decorative pieces than functional kitchen items. http://www.collectorsquest.com/featured-week/S+%26+P+Shakers.html
ReplyDeleteI love this post! Great ideas and wonderful photos to show us just what you are talking about. Nice. ~Mindy
