hang10tiki for sure.

=====================================

Dan has filled our home with wonderful tiki art. At the same time all my trip souvenirs have gone into a drawer. I decided it was time to get them out.
Dan has always said that if you can't display it then why have it. So here starts the project to get my 300 shot glasses on the wall.

I collect these because on trips they are little pieces of art, they have the name of the place and take up almost no space in a suitcase. I just stack them inside of each other and roll them in newspaper. They have always gotten home without breaking.

This is the wall I want to use for my collection so all these things must move.

The wall was now ready for my project.

We cleared this wall so we could condense the art from this hallway and the bedroom.

I lined up the art in the way I wanted Dan to hang it.

All done and better than ever.

This will hold a lot of shot glasses if I can just remove the extra wood pieces. So I went to work.

Now the glasses were a perfect fit.

On each day trip to a new city with thrift stores we hadn't been to I continued to collect any shelving that would work. I fit them together like a puzzle.

While searching for all the shelves in thrift and antique stores I came across these Hawaii plates. One was missing but I bought the 7 anyway.

A few weeks later I found the last plate in a different city. Imagine that! So all eight are hung along with my entire shot glass collection.
