Paper Punch Holder

Do you think curtain rods would work to hang my paper punchs on?

Are you talking the metal rods or wood? I think either would work, but you can't make them real long or the weight will cause them to bend or break. Maybe have supports in the middle of any rods that are longer than three feet. KWIM? Also make sure you are screwed into a stud or have those support thingies...I'm real technical when it comes to terms, aren't I?

I've seen that online and my friend did it in her stamp room. Works great. But like Kathy said, don't use super long rods.

I think most people use three or four short rods, on above the other.

Thanks for your help.

I used them...my suggestion is that you go to JoAnns and get the ones that hang closer to the wall (by Kirsch). Mine have 1-3/4 inches from the wall to the front of the rod. The ones that stick out further (like 3 inches) make it hard to hang the smaller punches.

Also the quality of the Kirsch rods is better...they are heavier. Mine were less than $3 each for the short ones.
