When collectible figurines, plates, globes and other items need to be displayed, but space and budget will not permit a large furniture addition, a wall curio cabinet is an excellent solution. Not only do these curios utilize wall space rather than valuable floor space, but also are quite affordable. Due to their affordability, collections can be displayed through a home or apartment in separate curios and are great for beginning collections because they emphasis a small collection rather than making it appear unsubstantial.

Mounting these cabinets is simple as long as you follow the manufacturer’s directions and use both wall mounts and find a secure stud in the wall.

Place the same weight in books as the items that are intended to be displayed. Allow the cabinet to hang on the wall overnight. Inspect the mounting screws for signs of loosening or for tears in dry wall. If neither of these danger signs are present, the cabinet is secure and collectibles can be confidently displayed without fear of the curio falling off the wall.
