    I love my pegboard---- well both of them. One is large from ceiling to the floor and the other is over a storage cabinet.

    So i used to have them in the bedroom closet. I just put up nails and hung them. It was like doing a picture wall. Hung a big one and then started filling the wall. Where ever they fit. I have since grown out of that bedroom so still working on new ideas.
    tried to pegboard idea. My amazing hubby helped. Made it about 14” square inside a picture frame . I shiuld have shown him some pictures first- but hated to sound ungrateful. Still have it. Just not very useful😁

    I use belt hanger circles and put them on a hanger in the closet in my sewing room. I can just go and find the one I want and it is quite handy

    Don't the hooks flip up when you take a ruler off? That's what happened in my old quilting room.

    It hasn't been an issue for me, but if they did I'd just stick the back of the metal part down with something (blu-tack, tape? whatever worked best)
