Definately reassuring that "winging it" is the best method!!! I want to hang so many frames, mirrors, etc.. but I'm seriously struggling trying to be techincal. Great video. Great tips! Thanks!!!
Nonsense. You can hang single hangers from those no problem. It would be more secure, that's why they put them there. I am a professional picture hanger and always avoid wire if possible. If I have to have on wire it's ALWAYS 2 hangers on the wall!
Great video! I like to use blue painters tape to make a template. I stretch the tape across the back of the wall hanging and make my d ring marks with a sharpie. Then I peel off the tape and affix to the wall using a long level, I hammer my nails or screw in my mollies right into the painters tape before peeling it off and voila, a level perfect hang! This method works wonderfully for super heavy pieces or mirrors and shelving as well.👍😉
I really like this method The only problem I have is leveling the tape on the wall I wish someone would show how to do this it's really hard to move the sticky tape and make it level all the way across
@@barbra429 I have a long level that measures 48 inches. I place my artwork on the floor, then stretch painter's tape (sticky side up) across the back and mark my tape with black permanent marker. Holding onto the edges of the tape, I raise the level up to the wall. As soon as bubbles line up, I push the level to the wall to affix tape. Then hammer in the first nail, or molly and screw. At that point you can either apply the second nail molly and screw, or use the level to double check for accuracy and make you new mark. I find holding level below the first nail or screw mark to be the most accurate. I hope this helps🙏❤
Ooooo please do one with plaster walls! I'm pretty sure I have plaster texture walls. We had trouble installing our security system because the walls were so hard. So some help decorating that beast would be soooo helpful! Hope you're doing great, you're the best!
Most homes come with textured walls where you are? I've never heard of that. Clearly I'm not spending any time in new homes! Untextured walls painted in builder's beige are common where I am. I love the grove in your hammer for starting nails - I want one. 😀

I love your sense of humor!💕
You're hilarious! My first time watching you and your method was actually the best I've found! Thanks heaps!😊
I really like your personality. Very informative too.
Just for further reference, the D-rings are for stretching a wire across in order to have a single anchor point.

I'm following along with everything you said except the part about affixing the tape to the wall with the level I'm not getting that part.
Thank you this helped me a lot and since I didn’t have enough wire to use the d rings the way they are supposed to be used. This worked for me.
Thank you, Lou! I am blessed to have a "type A" measure 50 times nail once hubby. Those are great tips! xoxo
You’re so much fun..can you do a close up version of this..hard to see
I do the Same thing with my fingers and the D rings, when being Lazy in Measuring a Picture or Object. Great Tutorial Video.💯
Great tips! I just need for you to demonstrate again. On the picture we need hung. In our entry way. LoL

Very informative. I always struggle with hanging pictures these were good tips. Thanks for sharing. 😊
I love this woman lol
Clever scratching the wall! Thank you!!
Fabulous. Unfortunately we have hard plaster and have to drill but you explained that beautifully.
This was so helpful - I can’t tell you how many wasted holes in walls I’ve put over the years! Love your dry humor as well! : o )
Thx for this instructional vid demonstrating everything not to do!
Great video! Thanks for the tips! 😊
This video helped me so much- THANK YOU!
Thank you! It looks now so simple to me

Have you found a good way to remove the D ring rub marks when you destage?

I need to know how to hang picture ledge shelves above my bed. I’m only 5 ft
You can add wire between the D rings very easily for a midpoint hanging.

I don’t like using nails. What abt command strips
COMMAND STRIPS
I use them a ton and they work well. Problem with the painting I want to hang now is 40" x 60". Too big and heavy for command strips
This is guide "how make this wrong" :p
This is some of the worst picture hanging tips I've ever seen.
