Plate Wall

I am so excited about our newest venture for the kitchen....

A plate WALL. I know, I know... What?


I saw this a-mazing idea pictured above from this blog. We are starting our collection of vintage, antique, or flea market find plates. I have so far gotten four plates that have cost me a grand total of $16 :) Here is what we did:



We went to Walmart and found these nifty plate hangers. Warning: to put these on the plates, it is definitely a two-person job if you would like to keep both of your eyeballs. BUT they are very sturdy: we haven't had any problems with them so far!


Here is my mini-plate wall. Four, yes I know, an even number. Gag. I was aiming for 3 or 5 to start with, but I didn't find any others that caught my eye. I guess I'll have to go back to the Burg's flea market this weekend :)


***Again, so sorry for the poor picture quality. You will all be happy to know that Nate and I purchased a new digital camera and higher quality images will be downloaded from now on. HooRAY!
