Displaying RUFTH Trivets on Kitchen Soffit: Hanging Tips and Ideas

[KellyTheChef]

Hi all!

I am wanting to display my RUFTH trivets (I am purchasing some so I have 2 of this current one and 2 of the one coming out in F/W catalog...) on my soffett (sp?) that is above my kitchen cabinets.

Has anyone done this? What type of a hook or hanging mechanism did you use? Looking at it, it seems like no matter what I use, you will be able to see it through the trivet. I don't want it to look tacky!

I am very excited to do this...we just painted our kitchen a beautiful sage green and the color of the trivets looks stunning against the green! I can't wait for more designs to come out now! I never collected the stoneware molds for display...only cuz they didn't thrill me. I LOVE our new trivets!!

Kelly, I just used a nail, but it had a smaller head. You really couldn't see it. I really like Teresa's idea of using a bow though.

How about a small plate hanger - the kind that's used for collector plates. You can find them in different finishes, and they barely show anyway. (DH has about 30 collectible plates, although we don't have them up in the house right now. I'll give you 2 guesses what they are...)

In the product room they had one hung by a nail. Could you paint it the color of your kitchen walls?

When I hung mine. I used a very small nail, took a black permanent marker and colored the head of the nail. You cannot even notice the nail.

I hung mine with a small nail. They look so pretty up on the wall!

Thanks! I think I am just making this way too complicated!

I will try the small nail and see how it looks (painting it is a great idea!) and if that doesn't work, I will try the bow!

I am thinking of shadow boxes!

I think the bow would add a cute touch to it. And if you have other colors in your kitchen you could use the bows to bring the color(s) out.
