What can I use to attach plates to my dining room wall?

Click on the link below. It talks about the old wire hangers and also about the newer disc hangers that attach to the back of the plate.

Go to your local home improvement store and ask for plate hangers. My mom used them all the time for her Scandinavian plates and never had one fall. The have a spring in the middle to accommodate different sizes and wires that come out of that which hold the plate itself. Plates look real good on the walls, even mixed in with the right pictures. Just make sure they are in a place where they won't get bumped, just like any picture they can be knocked off the wall and it won't just be the picture glass that breaks, it will be the plate itself.

Plate hangers! Lots of options!

my antique plates are hung with the wire plate hangers and I also bought a shadow box and put some of them in there and hung it
