I've seen hooks that hang from crown molding, but it's possible it's special crown molding or that it has to be put up "just so" for it to work.mpv61https://www.blogger.com/profile/03756394634390439326noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8017288345711987555.post-50273200514339700122017-06-21T16:27:47.203-04:002017-06-21T16:27:47.203-04:00I would like to know too why you can't use com...I would like to know too why you can't use command hooks.<br />Quilts 204https://www.blogger.com/profile/06142113667778104803noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8017288345711987555.post-32661805514124744512017-06-18T12:48:43.450-04:002017-06-18T12:48:43.450-04:00The light in your apartment looks amazing!

Isn't the whole point of them that they don't damage the walls?? I'm afraid I can't help with ideas for hanging larger quilts...we use cup hooks and dowels that fit nicely inside them.Leanne Parsonshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07944797294783593234noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8017288345711987555.post-76112553387676146662017-06-17T15:21:04.230-04:002017-06-17T15:21:04.230-04:00As mentioned above, I have used old sewing machine...As mentioned above, I have used old sewing machine needles to hang some quilts, they are sturdy, sharp enough to go in the drywall and fairly unobtrusive. Are nails an option? I knew someone who slipped a piece of thin wood into her hanging sleeve and then put a few strategic nails through the ends of the piece of wood and then let the wider quilt flip down over the sleeve again.Robbyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13963176990398590719noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8017288345711987555.post-47464223152789048252017-06-15T13:53:00.292-04:002017-06-15T13:53:00.292-04:00Heather has a great idea with the backdrop stand. ...Heather has a great idea with the backdrop stand.

Could you find a used or put together some kind of free standing screen that you could hang things on/over? You know--the kind of thing with a bend or 2 that will stand up (like bifold doors on a closet). You could even check a place like Habitat for Humanity ReStore that carries used building materials--might even find a ladder you could use!Karenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15927203644345965021noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8017288345711987555.post-5047140507808193312017-06-13T10:26:20.014-04:002017-06-13T10:26:20.014-04:00Hi Jess, try using a portable garment rack.

Other thoughts involve plywood... so not too apartment friendly. <br /><br />Also, I've seen great tutorials on how to "wallpaper" a wall with just some fabric and liquid starch... supposedly comes right off with water. I haven't convinced hubby to try it, but I could be rebellious and experiment for you.
