A gallery wall of baskets fits beautifully in a farmhouse. For some of us, the ideas flow naturally, but for others, it's a struggle.

So today we want to show you ideas on how to hang baskets on walls from basket placemats and bowls to tobacco baskets and more.

Plus tips on hanging tobacco baskets on walls.

Let's get started!

Hanging baskets on a wall can make a huge statement piece. The baskets can be different shapes, sizes, and colors.

Not long ago we featured some amazing gallery walls and this time we are featuring some of our blogger friends who have mastered the skill of how to hang baskets on a wall.

Come along and see what they've done.

Ideas on How to Hang Baskets on Walls

Baskets are a great way to add texture to your home decor and they are easy to find when shopping retail stores or thrifting.

Let's look at ideas for hanging baskets on walls from my home and friends.

Hanging Basket Over Mantel

At our house you will find baskets in every room on bookcases, tables, cabinets and mantel wall. One spring I decorating our mantel and noticed an empty spot for another decoration so I grabbed this cut small basket I found thrifting and added it to the decor.

Consider hanging one basket on your wall above your mantel. Check out my Decorating a Mantel for Spring to see more images.

Basket Collage Over Mantel

Another idea for decorating your mantel with baskets is this collage of basket I created one fall.

This was a combination of basket placemats and bowls. Some I overlapped while others were stand alone and I did different colors to add even more texture and depth.

Hanging Market Basket on Hooks

This market basket is one of my favorite baskets to decorate with. It isn't just for pretty but instead has a purpose.

Inside this basket is my gardening gloves and sheers. Whenever I want to pick branches or lots of flowers I grab it for a fun day outside.

To make this basket decoration easy I hang it on the hooks in my kitchen sitting room. To make this hanging basket even more fun I change the ribbon for holidays and seasons or leave the homemade tassel.

Now let's look at basket wall ideas from friends.

If you have a shelf that you want to hang some baskets over, don't forget you can prop the larger baskets up on the shelf.

Cluster a few other smaller baskets together that you hang on the wall.

The great thing here is that when you're trying to decide how to hang baskets on a wall, you can pull out old baskets that are tattered or new baskets you picked up on an adventure at thrift stores and display them proudly.

Leslie made a couple of daybeds for her basement, and above it, she hung a beautiful gallery of different baskets. Not only are they different shapes and sizes, but also different colors.

This gives the design even more character when you add color.

The baskets also tie in perfectly to the tables she has in her room and baskets that her plants are nestled in.

How to Hang a Tobacco Basket on the Wall

Here’s my best advice for hanging any basket on the wall: simply tuck a nail between the basket's weave. However, for tobacco baskets, I recommend driving a nail directly through the wood for a secure hold.

If you'd prefer not to see the nail, you can easily disguise it by adding flowers or a wreath to the basket.

Alternatively, if you don’t plan to cover the nail, consider attaching an art hanging hook to the back of the basket. This allows you to hang it neatly without the nail being visible.

Conclusion

If you have always wanted a gallery wall in your home, but never had the right things to hang up, you might be able to create the perfect look now.

Our friends made some eye-catching statement pieces on their walls.
