3 Good Reasons to Decorate with Plates!

So why should you decorate with plates rather than with regular paintings? This is something that I have thought about as I have both paintings and plates in my home. They both serve well as wall decoration, but they also have different uses in the wall decor. After thinking about it for a while I now have 3 good reasons to decorate with plates for you.

Reason 1 - Plates are easy to fit into a spot

Do you know the feeling of having a blank spot on a wall, where you miss something, but can't quite fill it out? It is often small and nothing really fits there, but it feels empty when you look at it. With a plate you can fill the spot and no matter how small the spot is, there will be a plate or plaquette that can fill it out and give some life to the spot.

Reason 2 - Plates Are Easy to Group

Plates are easy to find in matching colours and are therefore easy to group together. They do not necessarily have the same theme in the group, but it is certainly possible to have a group of plates with the same theme set in a decorative group. By grouping the plates you also make them more forceful in the room and they can fill out larger areas, when grouped together.

Reason 3 - Plates Can Make Patterns

You can hang plates in patterns only limited by your imagination. You can set them in linear, wavy or circular patterns making beautiful shapes on your walls with the plates. This way you can increase the possiblities for wall decorations to a very large extend and at the same time making your decor quite unique.

In short these three reasons should show the many possibilities you have for decorating in new and interesting ways with your plates. I hope you have been inspired by these ideas to further decorate your home with plates.
