Default Hats

I saw a programme on the Tv, the lady had them hanging on a wall, not sure what they were hangin on to be exact, but looked great! Would wonder about the dust however.. !

Default Hats..

Hi have about 20+ different styles, display privately!! like somewhere to put them safe so don't get sat on. And if on display intead of stored in a large box would have quicker access to them.

i was thinking along the lines of bawnie, you could paint one wall a funky colour get coat hooks thingys and dedicate the whole wall to them!!!

Hi Kitty,
I saw a friend display her hats on the wall of her bedroom, they made a dramatic display on the wall above the bed and formed an unusual bed head.

hi, i think dust is a problem alright!! if youve got little hats like pillbox for example you could display them in box frames. a group of them together in different sizes would make a great display and keep the dust at bay!

There's a place on South William Street (McGregor's Plastics) which sells all sorts of display stuff, generally aimed at shops and businesses, but sells to the public too. I know they have things like hooks especially for hat displays, and they're wall mountable. Even if you didn't buy the hooks, having a look around might give you some ideas.

This is an image of one of the hat displays they have. The wooden part minimises damage to the inside of the hat. Might even be something you could make a version of yourself?

thanks for ideas. Have hung them from ceiling using ribbons and pegs. Love the hat stand in pic, have to find out how much it would cost. Would love that.
