Shadow Box Display

• 1). Unscrew one side of the shadow box. Remove the side piece. Slide the backboard from the box.
  
  
• 2). Arrange vintage eating utensils on the felt covered backboard. Most backboards have dark felt; this will help silver-colored utensils "pop." If you are using other types of metal, you may wish to cover the backboard with fabric to brighten the display.
  
  
• 3). Cut connected sections of self-adhesive interlocking strips to fit the backside of the utensil handles and the bodies. Cut the strips thin enough so that they are not visible from the front of the display.
  
  
• 4). Peel the paper backing from one side of the sections and attach it to the back of the utensil. Peel the paper backing from the opposite side of the same section and press the vintage utensil against the backboard. Repeat this step with all of the utensils you wish to display.
  
  
• 5). Slide the backboard back inside the shadow box. Reattach the side piece of the shadow box. Hang the box on the wall.
  
  

Rack Display

• 1). Select a metal kitchen rack to coordinate with the vintage cooking utensils. For example, copper racks work well with copper utensils but silver metal racks can make the copper utensils stand out more.
  
  
• 2). Locate at least one wall stud on the display wall. Attach the wall rack to the wall with screws and a screwdriver according to the manufacturer's directions.
  
  
• 3). Arrange the vintage cooking utensils on the wall rack. Many cooking utensils have either a bent curve or a drilled hole at the end of the handle. Hook the bent handles onto the rack or use small "S" hooks to connect utensils with drilled holes to the display rack.
