plates for hooks

upcycled plate hooks by postroadvintage

A clever way of recycling vintage plates: turn them into charming wall hooks! That's exactly what etsy seller, postroadvintage, has done and I love this idea so much. Decorative, yet completely functional at the same time. They remind me a little of these. Obviously I have a thing for pretty vintage plates on walls.

This is such an adorable idea!!! I really like it!

Amanda Corrine said...

They look so delicate I would be scared of just dropping them or putting to much weight on the hooks. I'm really clumsy...still its a pretty cool idea

I love this! Although I'm afraid it might be too girly for hubby's taste. Maybe I can persuade him to let me redecorate the closet ;)

I've never even seen plates that could be used as hooks.... except my cake stand, I suppose, but I use that for cake! ;)

That's a great idea! This way you can collect all these pretty plates and actually use them instead of having them put away.
