I have a spot above my cutting table that I'd like to hang it, but I want to be able to flip it from front to back as needed.

Unfortunately, there are several creases in it from being folded in it's package, as they do not come rolled up but folded in thirds each way. Would love to lessen these creases somehow.

I was thinking of laminating it and then maybe punching a hole for a hanger, but maybe someone out there has a better idea for me.

I'm attaching two pics, front and back. It really is a wonderful tool, so I'd like to use it to it's full potential. The only 'directions' for hanging on the package insert are, "Hang it in your sewing room, studio, office or anywhere you work with color." Maybe the back side is just for looks and I shouldn't worry about it. :lol:

Thanks,

Alternatively, you could laminate it, punch two holes in it, string the holes and hang it from the string. That way you could flip from side to side without taking it down.
