As a seller and also a collector, I've always looked for different ways to display these little pieces of art. I want to list as many different ways of displaying them, so that other collectors and potential buyers can see how fun it can be to collect and display them.
I have asked my art friends to provide their own pictures and links and hope you enjoy both the ACEOs and the different ways to display them. I will keep adding to this post rather than create new ones, so I can use one link in my listings.
My thanks to all the wonderful art friends who have been so willing to share their ideas. Clicking on the pictures will take you to the contributor's Etsy shop.

Wow, love the rich copper-brown and intricate design in your aceo! Hopefully, I will have a pic to contribute soon.
Your copper piece on the easel is wonderful. I really like them displayed on tiny easels. It's so easy to move them around that way.
