Some vinyl album owners use their collections to make stunning wall art by using creative display methods. There are a few different methods you can use to accomplish this. However, using IKEA napkin holders is arguably the best way to display vinyl albums on a wall. To do this, simply install as many of the IKEA LIKSIDIG napkin holders on your wall as you need to hang up the albums you want to display. You can then slide your vinyl albums into each napkin holder.

When you’re done, you’ll have a wall decorated with your favorite album covers. To ensure that this display is as aesthetically pleasing as possible, you may want to go through your collection and pick out the vinyl albums with covers that mesh well with the existing color scheme and decor. Before getting started with this DIY, you must choose the room you want to hang your albums in. This decor would look great in a bedroom or living room, but it could also be used to give a home office space a fun makeover. After you’ve placed your vinyl albums in the IKEA LIKSIDIG napkin holders on a wall of your choice, you’ll have a fun decor element that puts your personality on display through your musical taste.

In the second hack in the video above, the content creator hangs the IKEA LIKSIDIG napkin holders onto the wall. However, you may want to customize them first if you decide to try this clever vinyl record storage solution for yourself. Consider applying spray paint over the metal napkin holders to give them a different look. Just make sure to do this outside on a piece of cardboard to avoid making a mess inside your home. Apply the paint away from direct sunlight for the best results. If you’re interested in this option, Rust-Oleum Metallic Spray Paint is a fun choice worth considering. Alternatively, you could use a paint brush and acrylic paint to add a more detailed design to the metal napkin holders. Consider painting the roses red and the leaves green to play into the theme of the decor pieces.

After customizing the napkin holders, move forward with installing them. You could add the record storage solution to your wall in a line downward, side by side, or in any other layout you prefer. The content creator hung them over tacks in the wall. However, for a more secure hold, you could hang the napkin holders over screws. Just use a stud finder and a marker to mark where you’ll add your screws and install them. Leave just enough space to hang the napkin holder onto the end. This may be the better option if you need to place a large, heavy stack of vinyl records in each napkin holder.
