simple, creative ways to hang art

Forget the picture frames. I just want to take a moment to adore this little art wall that showcases such a cute and clever use of drapery clips.


It elevates these little flashcards into a beautiful display. If you have extra drapery clips after you've hung all the curtains in your house, use the extras to show off some art. I promise it'll look beautiful, make you look incredibly creative, and help you feel super resourceful. I've also been noticing a lot of other creative and simple clip ideas for hanging art lately.

Clipboards as frames above, and binder clips below. The bonus for all these hangers, besides looking cool? They're practical, allowing you to switch out your art easily so your walls always look and feel fresh.

Those are all fun examples. I especially like the clip boards. Your deck looks great, by the way!

This is such a great idea! I've loved that first image with the drapery clips for a while too. I think they would be great mingled in with other things on a gallery wall, too!

Too Cute! I've never considered drapery hooks for hanging art. So clever. Love the wood hangers!

Love all the ideas. I would like to do the wooden hanger idea but am wondering what kind of clips you slid on the bar? Thank You!

Hi Lisa, the wooden hanger project was not mine (came from a blog called page thirteen) but I believe you can buy wooden hangers that come with clips (to hang pants). Good luck!
