What do I do with a finished tapestry?

I finished my first one. Hurrah! But now I have no idea what to do it Confused It's neither the most amazing picture nor the most amazing sewing - I did it really because I enjoyed doing it, rather than wanting the finished product. It isn't something I'd want framed on a wall, and we really don't need another cushion in the house (plus I don't have a sewing machine to turn it into a cushion cover). But it seems such a shame to just put it in a drawer.

What do you do with yours? I really enjoy doing them so I can foresee a pile of them stacking up...

Hang it in the loo and enjoy. Replace it with a more polished one later. Rinse, repeat.

And congratulations. I admire anyone who can make a tapestry (or anything, really).

Do tell what you decide to do with it OP. I am doing a crewelwork piece that is my first so I expect to be in the same position as you.

The only thing I could think of was to turn it into a little drawstring bag but if you don't have a machine that probably isn't a great idea.
