eating off the walls

Who doesn’t remember plates hung on the wall in their childhood home? My mom slowly collected all of the Franklin Mint nursery rhyme plates and had them on my walls in my nursey when I was a baby. There was a row of other plates above the kitchen cabinets and a few times a year, there was a grand plate washing fiesta. Yes, they’re dust catchers and rarely does a hanging plate collection ever look fresh these days but these two examples from Apartment Therapy have been bookmarked for a while and never managed to get deleted. I’m really feeling this approach to displaying a plate collection.

This arrangement is random and whimsical. The patterns are consistent and it’s more like an art installation than the typical display.

This is organized and symmetrical and I love the muted monochromatic theme.
