The great thing about decrapifying is that it often leads to some fun project ideas. As I was cleaning out a kitchen cabinet I realized that I had quite the collection of plates. I love plates, especially patterned plates. I’ll often buy them to use as serving pieces. The thing is, while they’re not in use they’re just sitting in a cabinet waiting for their special day. So I thought, why not let every day be a special day. Why not put these pretty plates on the wall?
It was sort of a “nobody puts baby in a corner” moment. So I ran out to Michael’s to purchase a bunch of plate hangers. Seeing my plates on this little wall in my kitchen, instead of stored away in a cabinet, makes me really happy!
They’re great company for my vintage-soda-crate-turned-shelf for my succulent garden.
I never really set out to collect plates, but I’m always drawn to them whenever I’m out shopping. It’s really nice to have a few of my favorites out on display where I can enjoy them every day.
What do you collect? Do you display your collections? Does decrapifying lead to projects in your house too?
love your collection of spunky plates!
