Arrange-a-Frame

12 screws.  6 frames.  A big wall.  One woman.

Thanks to some random home decorating show on TLC (not one I was familiar with) and Pottery Barn’s catalog (my home decor study guide), I have a very nice arrangement of our recent family pictures.  The pictures are cute and the frames are satisfactory, but how do you hang SIX pictures to form a nice arrangement and keep everything aligned properly??  Let me show you….

First, trace the frames on some paper and cut out –do this for each frame you’ll hang.  (While you are tracing you can also make marks so you know where to pound in your hardware.)

Using  painters tape, hang them on your chosen wall and now you have a template!

Once your arrangement looks the way you want, drill your screws or pound your nails right on top of the paper like so:

Next, rip the paper off and hang your pictures.  Here is my final product: arrange-a-frame-003

Now if I could just figure what to put on either side on my new grouping…..
