Command Strips for hanging fabric on wall?

[cat_mioux]

My daughter bought me a beautiful Aztec fabric which I want to hang on the wall.

She's been back from Peru for 2 years now and I still haven't done anything. It means handsewing a 'tunnel' at the top of the fabric then going to Bunnings and buying a flat piece of dowling ....

I want a temporary solution so I wondered if those 3M command strips will hold it up? It's not a heavy fabric.

Has anyone tried this with fabric?

Lol...no, you could be right...
Mine is just a hanging and doesnt have any dowell or anything..

I am not sure how cat will do it 🙂

They are great..and not leaving marks on the wall is a bonus!

lol nah, i'm usually wrong.

anyway, if the fabric doesn't stick, the hook is another option maybe.  Command now has a good range from clear ones to more decorative....

Don't try them on ceilings 😞 Walls ok but not ceilings where gravity is an issue

I got home from work and stuck the fabric to the strips and it's worked beautifully!

I have 5 strips at the top and realised I needed two at the bottom because a heating duct is directly below the wall hanging and it was blowing the fabric a little.

I made sure I really stretched the fabric tight so its flush against the wall. It looks fantastic! One day I'll post a photo.

I love command strips and hooks. 

Blackcat your quilty wall hanging is beautiful!
