There is hardly anything more charming and retro than decorative plates hanging on the wall. But these aren’t your grandmother’s hanging plates. Only one or two of these plates resemble the valuable plates that once hung on the walls in pioneer homes or in the dusty houses of early frontier settlements. These are works of art intended for display and are not used on a table or part of a table setting.
multipanel displays
Tie your room décor together with a coordinating multi-panel arrangement. Some are available as sets of individual panels, but others come complete with a metal frame ready to hang on the wall. The panels that are not already arranged have a coordinated theme and sometimes come with their own hangers so you don’t have to rely on the hardware panel hangers.
metal plates
Metal plates are a bit safer than ceramic plates for hanging on the wall. They are less likely to be damaged if a hanger gives way and they fall to the floor. Additionally, baked enamel is a great way to add bold colors to your kitchen or dining room that won’t fade easily. From intricate arrangements of galvanized pewter to unique Art Deco designs, metal plaques make a bold statement on your walls.
Fasten ceramic plates
If you like to collect plates, you can secure ceramic plates. There is no better way than to use one of the metal frames similar to the plate sets shown here. A frame allows you to slide panels in and out of your collection without worrying about changing wall fixtures. Otherwise, many craft stores sell custom-made brackets for hanging wall panels. Below are ten examples of hanging wall panels. The variety and type of plates is almost unlimited, so you have an excellent chance of finding the plate or plates that match your interior theme. You can use the signs to remember events or trips, or you can use them to dream a little about other places and different climates.
Galvanized wall panels
Liven up your country or farmhouse kitchen theme with this galvanized sheet and metal caster arrangement.

Nothing is as typical of the country as rinsing tanks and milk equipment from days gone by.
Flower hanging plate arrangement
Enjoy the look of baking sheet plates decorated with bright floral designs and displayed on a metal frame. This cheerful design will brighten up any kitchen or provide an interesting way to greet visitors as they walk down the hall. You can easily complement the room with matching vases or flower arrangements.

Glass wall panel
Reminiscent of Salvador Dali, this hand-blown glass wall panel is easy to display as a table or niche decoration. Its color tones range from clear to yellow to a blue-green reminiscent of water. Green stripes run through them, reminiscent of algae or water grass. This delicate plate evokes a fragile aquatic ecology.
Day at the Beach 9 Piece Wall Decor.
Do you remember or dream of going to the wonderful day at the beach with this nine-piece wall decoration? Each panel is pierced in two places to allow for a leather strap for hanging. Line drawings in blue depict things like seashells, snail shells, and starfish. The rigorous treatment of the drawings makes these panels ideal for a minimalist furnishing.
Enjoy classic designs with birds or flowers on a brown vintage background surrounded by “lace”. The entire design is reproduced on the metal plate. These pieces can add a quiet, if somewhat nostalgic, beauty to any room in the home. These can easily be combined with Victorian or even Edwardian decor.
Andean women
This hand-painted plate features bold colors and depicts Francisco Guerrero’s “Women of the Andes”. Depicted are three women in silhouette wearing the traditional hats and scarves worn by the women of this region. Each woman is represented with an ola, a large clay pot and a basket in the center of the grouping.
