simple living room interior design photo gallery

have you ever hung a picture and then realizedafter the fact that it's not centred or lined up properly? i know i've done that and i'vemade a huge mess of my walls in the process. on this week's home staging tidbit, i'm goingto show you a quick and easy way to hang a photo gallery, the one behind me, withoutmaking a mess of your walls. stay tuned. trace the picture frame on any kind of paperand then cut it to size. here i'm using thick poster board, but you can use any kind ofpaper. once the paper is cut, line it up along the back of the frame, and mark where thepicture hook is. measure where you want the picture to hangon the wall. now i'm hanging a grouping of four, so for my first one, i just eye balledit and measured from there.


tape your paper to wall where you want yourpicture to hang. measure the space in between each frame. here i'm measuring three inches.use a level on all sides to make sure everything is aligned properly. measure exactly where the clip is on the backof the frame. and measure exactly where that spot it on your paper. next you'll want to use a stud finder to seeif there's a wall stud where you plan to drill your screw into. now i got lucky here on allfour pictures, there were studs behind it, so i didn't have to use a wall plug. but ifthere isn't a wall stud behind, you will need to use a wall plug.


add felt pads to the back of the frame. thiswill keep the frame from marking up the walls. it's time to drill the hole. hang your first picture. it should be alignedperfectly with the paper. and of course, you want to make sure thatit's level. continue the same procedure for the last remainingphotos and make sure that you measure and level each one as you go. it's a quick easy way to showcase your photoswithout marking up the walls. i hope you enjoyed this weeks home stagingtidbit. be sure to sign up for tidbit tuesdays to get great tips to help you buy, sell orsimply love your home.
