How to hang a group of pictures on a wall.

We used a cool app recently for the iphone and ipad called hand a pic. Doing so enables you to move pieces around until you arrive at the optimum arrangement. Hammer a nail into the wall right above the painter s tape remove the painter s tape if you re hanging a group of 4 pictures just repeat the same steps for the second row of pictures. Choose where you want your grouping to hang and draw a horizontal line from left to right.

Have someone hold a piece up to the wall while you stand back and appraise just cover the hanging hardware with masking tape first to keep it from scratching the wall. We used it a couple of times already once for hanging pictures and the more recently to hang 4 plates on the wall. Look at every reasonable possibility. Prop them against the walls and consider your options.

Arrange the art on the floor within the given area. Secure the pictures to the wall using whatever hardware is appropriate for your wall type and the weight of the pictures. First set out the pictures you want to hang. Measure the wall space that you want to fill.

Outline that exact size on your floor using masking tape. Assemble the pictures on the floor until you re satisfied with the arrangement adjusting for frame style and size. Hang the pictures at varying heights along the rod using invisible fishing line. Be sure to hang the lowest pictures first in case you need to layer pictures over the line up above.

You can nail right through the paper if the location of the nail hole has been marked. Position the art on the wall with the line going through the center of each piece. I didn t measure the exact distance between the top and bottom row of pictures just eyeballed it.
