ElleInOregon Many hardware stores sell metal plate hangers that have springs to make them stretch..they are inexpensive.
I googled "Plate Hangers" and got the image of exactly what I use. Isn't it a nice wall decoration for the kitchen?
Grandmother's china makes a great art collection when displayed on a wal. Dress up the space with modern furniture and accessories to reduce the "granny" effect and enhance the "chic."
You don't have to give up some of your favorite things from your Victorian phase. Make these plates work as you modernize. Keep a round theme flowing in the room with a rug beneath a round table & a vintage round hanging birdcage. Voila!
