Dive with a swimsuit display
swimwear vintage framed on plain backgrounds add a touch of sauciness sea at this coastal system. The idea would also work in a nursery with a precious baby clothing your baby grew up on. Keep in mind that the odd numbers of objects tend to look better than even those, then hang them in groups of three or five.

Hang your hats
got a collection of hats Pharrell would want? Although a neat stack of boxes can look quite elegant in its own right, hang your helmet on the wall means you get to enjoy even if you do not wear it. Clustering hats together, rather than space them evenly, it is easy to add to the screen as your collection grows.

Go gaga for radios
A group of old radios brings depth and drama to this vibrating device wall. The contrast between the bright, modern wallpaper and retro radios, more jaunty angles they are suspended, are what makes this so much fun arrangement.

See off pretty porcelain
These green and white plates of each size and shape are hooked together to look like a giant work. The key here is clean edges, lines of the screen. To create something similar, buy some cheap dishes in your chosen colors and use a wet saw to cut and hang up these first to form a "frame" rectangular, before filling in the gaps with your favorite china.

Unify a mixture of objects
If your collection is not bound by a color or a clear theme, you can overcome it by how you choose to display it. Here, the use of glass bells is what binds independent pieces together (with the added benefit of keeping them dust free).

Keep safety
it is worthwhile to put small delicate objects on the road behind the glass doors of evil. These miniature alcohol were collected worldwide over 20 years, and the owner had this wall created especially for the show and keep them safe. Backlight and acrylic shelves make it seem as if the bottles are "floating" in the display. Who knew something so small could look so striking?
