[Cob] hanging pictures and decorations on cob

[Tonya Pope]

An alternative would be to hang them by wire from the ceiling.  In 
older homes, I think especially victorians, this was the common 
practice.  You would then have more creativity in height placements 
and such.  Depending on your ceiling material, this may something 
workable.

I'm seeing large chunks of cob flying everywhere every time you go to hammer - and once you get a nail into the wall, how secure would it be?  I would imagine if you really thought ahead, you could embed something in the wall as you're laying the cob, but who has THAT kind of foresight?
