Here is an idea that has been floating around for some time in my head. Look in your attic, flea markets, relatives, etc. for a head board or foot board that is interesting. Attach brackets to hold a rod to each side. Attach hooks - heavy duty to back. You may also want to paint or refinish if neccesary. Voila, a recycled unique quilt holder for an unusual space on the wall. I do have a foot board off of an old bed that I will be using for this project. I was thinking of adding a mirrow tile or picture frame in center and candle holder to each side or even adding side lights instead of candle holders. The possiblities are endless. Another idea is to use an old weathered board. I was lucky one day of being in the right place. As a truck was going around the corner in the country, an old weathered board about 2ft by 5ft fell off the back. The guy kept on going, he never came back and I could not chase him down.
