Hanging Quilts

I have this little wall space between my banister and the entrance to my kitchen. It has remained empty/blank since we bought our house last summer. It's not real big, so I was having a hard time deciding what to put there.

Finally I came up with this...


I thought this would be a great way to a) put something colorful on my walls cheaply and b) showcase some of my quilts

Of course, the best part is that I can rotate the quilts as my mood/the seasons change.

One a side note, one of my fall projects will be to paint that clock. I'm thinking something is this color palette, maybe even a shade of turquoise. Wouldn't that be awesome?!

    That looks great there. I like the rotation idea too. Mine just rotate in and out of my cedar chest.

    I like the idea of hanging your quilts. I also really like the color you might paint the clock.

    Love it!

    I think the clock would look fabulous in a turquoise! it might limit what quilt you can display in your hallway, though.

    So pretty! Did you just use curtain rods?
