What would be the best way to display what I believe to be an antique fishing net?
It is long and narrow.
It can either be indoors or out (would rather indoor) and I have three "star tacks" I can use.

So when my hub was not home, I went out and got this tile, its like peel and stick linolium stuff. I primed the old countertops (25 years old.) Then I peeled and stuck this stuff. It looks great. I purchased the squares that have the beveled edges, and then I filled with caulk. The problem now is, is where the edges are, the tile started to fall. What can I do to get the pieces that are standing straight up to adhere to the exsisting counter?? Help... Hurry.. I need some ideas before tommorrow.

What's your best use of it, other than as a fabric softener? Mine (so far) is:
