She’s a brick wall
Everyone loves a great exposed brick wall. I know that I always see them as a perk when looking at houses/apartments. Many of my clients are NYC based which means I get to work with a lot of exposed brick walls.

While I adore the look sometimes I just want to hang something on the walls and due to the brick work and my clients being renters not owners I can’t go about making huge holes in their brick that can’t be repaired to it’s original state when they move out.

During a trip down the Pinterest rabbit hole I found a solution for my renters with exposed brick walls.
Brick Clips from Lee Valley. In order to use them the mortar lines must be recessed. In using them you prevent any damage to the brick or mortar bond. So cool! Can’t wait to test them out.

My living room is one of the rooms that evolved drastically from when we first moved one. Originally I painted the walls chocolate brown and did accents of white, blue and orange. That lasted maybe 2 years.
Our dining room sat empty for months. Okay maybe it was empty for just a handful of weeks and then we couldn’t take it anymore and put in a folding table and plastic outdoor chairs, but in my mind that was still empty.
On the main floor of our house we have a Florida room. Being that it’s a Florida room it is a considered a 3 season room, because there is no heat in the room. The previous owners used it as an indoor patio with outdoor furniture and it looked like this when we moved in.
Perfect!! You always find the best stuff.
You are so awesome to share this! We have exposed brick from the original exterior of our house in our family room addition, which I love, but it’s nice to have a solution like this! Seems like it could also work on the exterior. Thanks!
Yes, you can use them to hang wreaths on your brick house !
We have used those for hanging our mailbox – they work amazingly!
What a great find! I don’t have any brick interior walls but may need those for the exterior.
I am a diehard exposed brick fan. I just love the look. That first image is one of my personal favourite pins on Pinterest – it’s gorgeous! Great tip about brick clips….filing that one away…thank you!
I’ve always wondered how one hangs things on a brick wall. This is a great tip.
Where do you purchase the clips?
