Hang It On The Ceiling Using Hooks Or Nails
The first step is to measure the height of the wall where you plan on hanging the jersey. If you have a high ceiling, you may need to use some tools to measure exactly how high it is. Once you have that information, you can measure the height of the wall where you will nail or hook the jersey and hang it from the ceiling.
If you are using nails, you will need to find a place for them to be hidden. You can use drywall anchors or concrete anchors that are designed to be hidden in the wall. The benefit of these types of anchors is that they will not show once the wall is hung so the person walking by will not be able to see them. The downside is that they are visible when you are nailing or hanging the wall surface so someone may walk in on you when you are doing that.
Hang It On The Wall Using Hooks Or Nails And Keep It Hidden
The second step is to hide your nails or hooks when you are not using them. If there is nowhere that you can hide your nails or hooks, then this is what you should do:
When you are using them, drill a small hole in the wall to thread the material through. You can use drywall anchors or concrete anchors that are designed to be hidden in the wall. When you are not using them, cover them with either spray paint or texture paint to make them disappear into the wall.
This way, when you are hanging the wall surface on the wall, the nails or hooks will be hidden and no one will know that you are using them. They will only know that the wall is hanging there because there are no visible nails or hooks on the wall when it is complete.
Hang It On The Wall Using Velcro
Not every wall can be used to hang a hockey jersey or any other type of sports jersey because there has to be enough space to attach the material. If you have a concrete wall or thick wall with studs holding up the entire structure, then you can use the following method:
Cut off a section of the wall that will be at least two or three inches wider than the width of your hockey jersey. You can use either a knife, saw, or drill to do that. Once you have that space, you can adhere the hockey jersey to the wall using either spray paint or hook-and-loop tape (Velcro).
Hanging a sports jersey on a wall is a great way to honor your favorite player. Whether it is a hockey jersey or a football or basketball jersey, it will be the perfect decoration for your wall.
