Could never get it right because of the whole it hangs a little lower issue. Then I found a tool... It was a stir stick (like you get when you buy paint) with a screw all the way through it. The point is sticking out so that you can hang the picture on the head and mark exactly where the nail should be by pushing the point into the wall. Now I use the paper shapes for guides and when I have them exactly where I want I take each picture and Hang it buy holding my stick. When it is right I just bump the point into the wall. Perfect placement every time.suehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16972719320760604258noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-78394957650553927.post-59134210800702003132009-03-22T14:53:00.000+00:002009-03-22T14:53:00.000+00:00Putting up pictures and artwork is something that ...Putting up pictures and artwork is something that will be in my near future, as soon as we're done unpacking!

My boyfriends family used to live in Rome, and on our next trip over I've promised myself I'll buy a large sketch from one of the street sellers and have it framed. Also think it looks really effective when people hang portraits all up the stairs in random groups, so might try and adopt that too. Your sitting room looks amazing! xSarah Athow-Frosthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04373886244373639656noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-78394957650553927.post-43027568682909059692009-03-20T12:46:00.000+00:002009-03-20T12:46:00.000+00:00I LOVE your blog!I LOVE your blog!!!Estella!!https://www.blogger.com/profile/16828471696016750016noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-78394957650553927.post-4938294613305066832009-03-20T11:50:00.000+00:002009-03-20T11:50:00.000+00:00Great post.. putting up pictures is a job that I'v...Great post.. putting up pictures is a job that I've been meaning to do for ages..thanks for the tips!
