For this month's Apartment Therapy theme - art, crafts and collections - we've been covering a range of inspiring ideas, especially when it come to showcasing your collections. We spotted this very easy DIY and affordable way to showcase your cherished items by using...
...unfinished wooden boxes. Consider how you house your collections that you love so much by making the installation art in it's own right. These wooden boxes are fasted to the wall with slide hooks and look great!
How do you showcase your collections?

really? I don't see crooked at all. I see fun (but I also see dust in the future and that's less fun...)

A smaller grouping of boxes on the wall like these would make a good landing strip in a tight space.

Pardon the ignorance but "slide hooks" ? What are they and any place to look for a photo of them?

Lolo: I believe these were custom made from appearances, but you can make your own following these instructions.
