What should I do with these panels?

last year

I used part of a wooden room divider screen to make a headboard for the spare bedroom. Now I have extra panel pieces that are kinda neat, but I don't know what to do with them. Any thoughts on how to use these pieces? I have 8 total, but 1 is rounded at the top so it may not be usable. They measure roughly 11" x 7" and are a thin wood. I considered hanging them on the wall as decor, but just can't figure out how to make them look nice. Framing them seems like overkill.

Thanks!

If you'd like to use them in that bedroom, maybe explore using them as a backdrop for a mounted framed photo or art, possibly 5x7. Using the 4 flowers as the size guide for the area to be covered. Here's a photo example.

Are they paintable? Or, would you consider painting? Do you have a covered patio that could use some brightly colored wall art?

Place a mirror behind them and then hang it all as one piece. Place a gold painted backing and then mount them and hang it as one piece. Hang only one of them in a nice little spot and let it be simple. You don't have to use all three.

How heavy are they? You might be able to velcro them to the wall. They are quite nice!

Please no background except the wall . I do not think you need 8 of them anywhere but show us all 8 evn the one with different top . They do not need a frame , but we need to see your spae too. I commend you BTW on the headboard use . Please no velco on the wall but we need context.

Thank you all for your interest! Here is the headboard, which shows the curved top piece. There was a fourth panel in the original screen, and the wooden pieces slide right out of the frame so I have 7 square and 1 curved at the top. It does seem like all of them would be too much. They are lightweight, and they could easily be painted. I have a large blank wall in the same bedroom, but am concerned it would be a bit too much of that pattern in the same bedroom.

We just finished our basement and 2 bedrooms downstairs. There is a workspace countertop, and could put them above it as a backsplash of a kind? Or just fill up some of the wall space somehow?

I'm thinking I could put 4 of them together to make a box? a planter or something?
