So you’ve finished your embroidery and want to proudly show it off? Here are five easy ways to display hour embroidery in your home.

Nail in the wall

This is a quick way to hang up your hoops but if you want to move your hoops somewhere else then those little holes will need fixing! I have a few nails that stay in place and I just switch the hoops that I hand on them.

Removable hooks

These hooks are a bit of magic. You can stick them to your wall and then reportedly you can remove them without them leaving any marks.

I’ve used the hooks and they are so simple to put up but I’ve not tried removing any as yet as I’m happy where they are at the moment!

These are the hooks I recommend.

Tape

I have to admit this isn’t my favourite - I just can’t get the hoops to stay on the way with tape alone. But I have had success with lighter items such as this banner.

If you are going to try this method with a hoop, you need to add a hanging thread through the screw. I’d also recommend adding a knot to the end of that hanging thread as I’ve found that without a knot the weight of the hoop means it just slides straight through the tape.

Mini easel (or plate stand)

I spotted this mini easel in Flying Tiger (complete with a canvas) and thought it would work really well to display embroidery hoops on a shelf and I think it looks great. It also means that it’s super simple to switch the hoops around .

On a shelf/picture shelf

Many of my hoops are simply propped up on a shelf. It the quickest and easiest way to get your hoop on display (providing you don’t have to put the shelf up first!) but it does take a knack to get them to sit upright.
