Hanging Methods For Large Platters And Bowls?


Recommended Posts

I put two holes, spaced at least an inch apart, through a deep foot. The other option is a hanger- I often use the wrought iron type like THIS. They work well for standing up on a table or hanging on the wall. I found a bunch at Pier 1 really cheap once, that are deep enough to hold a sink bowl or large platter. I'm not a big fan of the wire wrapped all the way around a foot ring. It never seems tight enough for me to trust it.

I make two holes but don't put the wire in. Claylover wants the platter to be dual purpose so if I attach wire how can the platter be placed on the table with wire attached? Strung tightly across the middle with the knots fully within the ring height? have to be stainless or it would rust.. I once provided a Gallery with stands for my platters but it sold them as part ofhte deal, I was out of pocket as  the stand was not part of  my pricing so..

I have a pie plate with a small clay loop for hanging... we use it a lot (it's waiting to be washed now, as I had the last slice of pie for breakfast).  I expect that eventually we'll accidentally knock the clay loop off.  The potter said she had trouble keeping those from popping off or getting broken off in the creation process.

 

Any thoughts on how to hang something like a pie plate that doesn't have a foot ring?  (From the perspective of making it, not trying to find a way to hang an already-made piece.)
