@hometalk: Don't toss those old fan blades... try THIS instead! #upcycling #homedecor #upcycling #DIY #homeorganization #genius #DIY #hacks #thrifting #idea
I wonder if you could cover the blades with paper like this and continue using as a fan?

An additional hook at the top for keys or a hat would be sweet! 🥰

I use the fan blades for my vintage Coach bag display. I added a 6 inch piece of wood between the blade and hardware, then mounted it to the wall. I can sit them on the shelf and hang from the hardware.

Or - do this on the blades of an existing ceiling fan. My mother-in-law painted the fan blades bright colors and then painted a Sesame Street character on each blade for my nephew's nursery. It was super cute and one of a kind.

Would have never thought of that! They would look good as a base for wall sconces as well 🤔
