    Learn More About Panels & Wall Hangings

    Glass art panels and wall hangings are both styles of glass art, but differ according to how and where they are displayed. You can hang both glass panels and wall hangings on a wall, but a panel will usually have a frame around it, while a wall hanging often refers to an unframed sheet of decorative tempered glass.


    Wall hangings tend to be larger to beautify a lot of wall space, while glass decorative panels are often smaller and hung in windows or placed on a stand for a side table. While sizes vary—you can have large wall panels and smaller wall hangings—the art styles may be the same, like an acrylic glass print or stained glass.

    Decorative wall panels are great for adding pops of colors to decorate a space, while metal wall hangings can take on a feature role as a standout among your decor. If you have some empty wall space near your entrance or above your sofa, these are ideal locations for a large decorative wall hanging of something you like. It could be a tapestry wall hanging of a fantasy scene, a world map, or something to tie into your interior decor style, like a crashing wave in a coastal living room or an abstract wall hanging for a modern bedroom.


    Use panels in places like your windows, display cases, or side tables to add a bit of stylish decoration. If your style is all things beach related, opt for macrame wall hangings. You might also hang a stained-glass panel over your bathroom window for more privacy and a waterproof, decorative touch. Try a stained-glass landscape such as a beach sunset or a floating starfish to turn your bathroom into a relaxing Caribbean spa.
