I enjoy collecting soccer scarfs, and I wanted a good way to display the scarves of my local soccer team, Minnesota United FC.  I knew that my display had to allow me to take the scarves down easily.  I think the end result turned out really well.

Goals: Look good, easy to remove scarves and put them back up.

Materials: 

8 foot long wood trim.  To be cut in half.

Stain.

10 badge clips.

10 #4 x 3/8″ screws

4 drywall or wood screws

Steps

1.  I first cut the 8 foot trip in half and then stained it with some stain I had left over from staining some window trim.  I used a paint brush, but my brother recommended I just use an old cotton cloth, to better work the stain the wood.  Next time, that’s what I would do.  It doesn’t have to be any specific size piece of wood.  I chose 8 feet, because I had about a four foot space to work with on the wall.

2.  Next, I pulled the plastic piece off the badge clip, and screwed the clips onto the piece of wood from the top hole and through the smaller hole on the back.  I spaced them about 10 inches apart, but they could probably be as close as 8 or 7 inches and still fit the scarves.  You can see the small hole in the picture below.

3.  Finally, I mounted the two pieces of wood on the wall with just normal wood screws.  Choose a screw that will stay in your wall.

And that’s it.  Pretty easy project that works great and looks good.
