Have you holes all over your wall from the effort of hits and trials on how to
hang pictures or wall decorations on the walls correctly? Then, this article is
for you. Many times we use wrong hangers or make mistakes in hanging wall
decorations or pictures that lead to permanent scars on the beloved walls of our
dorm, apartment or home. Here are a few suggestions to avoid this:
* It is good to start by making a rough map of the wall and positioning of
pictures on the paper to decide beforehand where to hang which picture.
* Once decided, you can begin hanging your pictures according to your drawing.
* Use small sturdy nails and use studs for placing nails on walls to avoid any
damage to the wall, especially when you are renting the apartment or living in a
dormitory, which may result in deductions from your deposit.
* Studs and stud indicators can be found at local hardware stores and help in
centering pictures and hanging them properly.
* Ensure that the wire from which are going to hang your picture or decoration
on the wall is strong enough to bear its weight and won't come loose while you
are hanging it.
* There are other ways to hang your pictures than hammering nails into the
walls. You can use removal adhesive tape hangers instead or the 3M Hooks with
command adhesive.
* These adhesives just need to be peeled off and the picture, family photos
towel hangers, valances or other wall decorations can be easily centered and
secured on the wall.
* You can also use easel type frames that can be placed on tables or dressers or
collage type frames that can fit several pictures and quite inexpensive to
display your photos or cut-outs of your favorite stars and actors.
* You may also use creative background ideas to decorate these frames to
highlight your favorite photos.
