Hanging a decorative blanket can add warmth, texture, and visual interest to any room. One effective method involves using magnets to create a secure and consistent display.
Using Magnets to Hang Your Blanket
A straightforward way to hang a decorative blanket is by employing a system of magnets. This technique allows you to secure the blanket edges firmly against a surface, providing a flat and polished look.
Here's how you can use magnets based on the method described:
- Prepare the Surface: Determine where you want to hang the blanket. While the reference doesn't specify the surface type, this method is commonly used on metal surfaces or with magnetic paint/strips installed on a wall.
- Position the First Magnets: Place the initial set of magnets onto the wall or surface where the blanket will hang. These magnets will serve as the anchors for the blanket's edges.
- Place the Blanket: Carefully position the top edge of the blanket over each magnet that is already on the surface.
- Secure with Second Magnets: Snap a magnet on top of the blanket directly over the first magnet to secure the blanket down. The blanket edge is now sandwiched between the two magnets.
- Repeat Along the Top: Continue this process along the entire top edge of the blanket, placing magnets evenly spaced.
- Add More Magnets (Optional): If you have more than 10 magnets, you can achieve a more stable hang by placing additional magnets evenly between those across the top.
- Secure Corners (Optional): To ensure the blanket hangs flatter and more consistently, you can even place one each in the bottom corners. This helps prevent the bottom edge from sagging or flapping.
This magnet technique, by sandwiching the fabric, creates a flatter and more consistent hang for your decorative blanket, showcasing its design beautifully.
