How Do You Guys Display Charms?

[chrisnurse]

I love small plastic monsters and charms - but I find them difficult to display. I tend to put them in old print trays:

The problem is that they do sometimes fall out, and I've noticed that the dogs love Monster charms as much as I do, only they love chewing them up as opposed to admiring the critters. I was just wondering how other folk display these tiny little things?

Maybe attach a piece of plexi to the front, somehow?

Wherever I am, I'm displaying my charm.  I'm full of charisma.  Well, full of something anyhow.  Maybe for the ones with loops, you could string them with knots in between to keep them in place and run them along the ceiling or wall.  With the smaller ones, because they are plastic, you put 2-sided tape on the bottom and put them in a little display box like they sell for model cars and trucks.

For pencil-toppers and eraser-heads at least, here's a simple solution:



You can get a bag of wooden mini-blocks plus a couple of pencils at Michael's for about $1. You drill the first, cut the second, stick 'em together, and you're all set.

After trying various things, I use riker mounts now.

COOL DISPLAY, Bobby! Those charms really pop out at you this way...great assortment, too.

On the same order as your paint trays you can go to Michael's and get a shadow box and you can put them on the wall easily.  You'll have to stain or paint them to finish them.  Nice collection!

I am a charm junkie, so I have amassed a lot of them over the years. I just use whatever I can find to display them.  I used to just put the loose ones on a shelf:

I use picture frames without the glass to straighten and hang the machine displays:



I have a little ring case I found at a garage sale that I use for rings:

I have a thin glass case that I use to flatten out folding charms:

And this is my primary wall display that I am using right now.  It is similar to what you are using, Chris.

Ok if no one else will say it I will:... "You'll have to ask my wife."

Nice displays, guys. I've yet to take the plunge into charm territory but I'm sure it's an inevitability. I have a feeling that when it happens, they'll just end up at the foot of my existing displays. I love having different size things in front of one another.

Packy,I knew there had to be a reason why the thread wasn't worded How do you display YOUR
charms ? You have just answered my question ! LOL !!
