Does anyone know the best way to hang up or display vinyl records on my wall?
I just bought a 12″ Vinyl Record and I need to find a way to properly display it in my room. I feel like there has to be a store or website that sells casings for vinyl records but i haven’t found it. Can anyone send me in the right direction?
I take it you don’t intend playing the record? Why don’t you buy a cheap picture frame from a mart, put record in it, and then hang on a Command picture hook(from hardware). Easy!
If you want to frame it, take it to Aaron Bros or Michael’s… BUT.. If you want to do it super inexpensively and different, do this… Cut a circle of black felt the exact size of the album and another little circle slightly bigger than the hole in the center. Go to a hardware store and pick out a really cool looking screw/bolt almost the same diameter as the hole in the album with a head slightly larger than the hole (or use a washer). Then, placing the felt between the wall and the album (and the little piece over the hole) “screw” the album right to the wall!
Tips:
- If there is no stud where you want to hang it, use a sinker.
-You can paint the head of the screw/bolt or even glue something to it that pertains to the album (i.e. metal pot leaf on a Bob Marley album; a cross on a christian album, etc)
- If you dust it semi-regularly, it should be fine for years to come
