Oh my God! Rebecca that is exactly what I was thinking! I too am in the market for a potrack but have been confounded by the exact same dilemma: do I only put pretty specially-purchased things up by my stove thereby defeating the whole purpose of having a potrack by my stove?
Again and again I strive to avoid the pitfall of Diderot and his beautiful red dressing gown. Still not there. Sigh.
Hey! Thank you for posting my pot rack – photo #2, it is against the wall over the workbench. And to answer the question about hanging only "the pretty pots…" The pots you see hanging, I use EVERY DAY. Hang, hang, hang, the pots you use. When you can afford it, buy one really good pot at a time. That is what I did. When you finally get the good stuff, you find you don’t need many at all. I needed a rack out of necessity – I have no storage in my tiny kitchen. But thanks for sharing.
I think a cooks kitchen needs a good rack, but if you are afraid to show the pot, should you really be cooking with it. All our favourites have battle scars and franklythere seems to be a few pots there that havnt seen a stove.

I always think the best racks are above kitchen islands— what else would you ever put up there?!?! 🙂 I like your post!

First I spotted my kitchen and pot rack here, then later it turned up here: http://babeczkaa.blox.pl/2010/01/podwieszone.html#ListaKomentarzy
After translating the page, pot racks don’t seem too popular in Poland.
