Displaying Your Vintage Postcards On Colorful Streamers

Hanging Your Vintage Cards On Colorful Streamers

Retro-Hang-Up Series


While this idea is not exactly a vintage Retro Hang Up, this cool way of hanging postcards and announcements could easily be adapted for antique dealers who need a great display idea for their collectible cards. . Spotted at The Farmington Valley Art Center, Avon, CT., colorful bands or streamers of very durable material were attached to a dowel (wood rod) which hangs from a side wall. Clips were added to the bands to hold the cards.

A Functional Vintage Colorful Display For Cards

I think that the colorful bands are the key to this fabulous functional display idea. Wouldn't this Retro Hang-Up look great for the holidays with vintage Christmas postcards or greeting cards?
