I found my pair of foo dogs when we bought the house - so going on 1.5 years ago. And although I adore them, I never had a good place for them and thus they were moved from spot to spot in and around our living room.
At Christmas, I was given those lovely gilt wall brackets by my in-laws, but also wasn't sure where to put them.
And then I had one of those "ah-ha" moments....although I loved the little scene atop the armoire, I thought it could use some layering, and adding the foo dogs to the wall would give it some interest and give me lovely foos the attention they deserved.
The moral of my story is that I am one who abides by the rule of "If you love it, you'll make it work". Sometimes it takes time to figure out exactly where things will go, but in the end, you make it happen.
The foos are very content atop their new perch.

I too tend to buy things I love and then figure out where to put them. Above the armoire on the beautiful brackets is the perfect spot!
