5 Creative, Fun Ways to Display Those Collectibles

Whether it'll be vintage toys, china plates, porcelains, or a bunch of refrigerator magnets, people are into collecting something. And while many are excited on adding more of these great finds, they rarely know how to display these to add those aesthetic charm in their house.

Here are some tips on how you can organize and flaunt these collections the best manner possible.

1. A "Gallery Wall" for those Collections

The greatest way to share those collections is via a gallery wall. This gallery wall will be great for bigger pieces that are usually placed on our walls like canvas paintings, big wall clocks, pattern artworks...etc.

HGTV suggests that you choose the best ones you liked on these finds to display on your walls. Choose the ones that creates a dynamic and contrast in color. Also, don't overcrowd it because the beauty of the pieces may not be seen if you displayed in too much.

2. Floating Shelves

Floating shelves are another way to bring the beauty of your finds. HGTV suggests that these are great for "larger items that don't belong on the wall" such as tiny ceramic pieces, vinyl toys, brass or copper wares, etc.

Make sure to always clean up these pieces and wipe off the dust regularly.

3. Built-in Shelvings

Built-ins as advised by HGTV are also a fun way to coordinate your collection pieces with other house accessories and decors. Considering the size of your built-in either big or small will still be a great place to display those collections.

4. Convert Wine Crates to Creative Spaces

If you don't have built-in shelvings and shelves, this may become a great DIY. The wine crates that are just crowding your yard can become a great storage display if mounted on your walls. This lovely DIY is from Design Sponge and there are endless ideas you can do with these. You can even start off first by painting your crates or you could let it be as it is.

5. Stack up Shelves

Stack up shelves are available on your local depot store or even furniture shops. It comes in different sizes and color. This idea by Decoist is another great way to display those large collection pieces such as old typewriters or vintage cameras. If placed properly in a side of the room can even become a great conversation starter to your guests.
