How to hang a clip frame on the wall.
If you want to hang a frameless mirror on your wall you ll need to use mirror clips or a special adhesive.
A two nail hanger can hold up to 50 pounds.
Lay the mirror aside then install the clips two along the top and two at the bottom.
To use clips put the mirror where you want to hang it and use a pencil to mark the top and bottom corners.
Mark this middle point faintly on either side of the picture frame rear.
Wrap the wire ends at the top of the opening along the top edge of the clip.
Find the width of the entire picture frame.
Connect the marks with a ruler or other straight edge and lightly draw a line.
Mark the location of the top edge and the center of the frame.
The weight of the art you plan to hang determines the hangers used and the method of hanging it.
I ve got frames hanging in this manner that have been up for a couple of years.
Set the mirror down.
It should be roughly half an inch below the intended top of the picture and centered.
If you give a hook a small tap with a hammer then it bites into the wood enough that you can usually screw it in by hand without drilling a guide hole first.
Place a scrap piece of wood that is approximately half as long as the mirror is wide underneath the hanging wire on back of the frame.
Hold the mirror against the wall at the desired position.
Put a nail in the wall in the place you have selected.
To start hold the mirror in the spot you want it then trace around the top and bottom edges with a pencil.
Place 2 clips on the bottom 1 on each side and 1 on top for most mirrors though a large mirror may need more.
Another way you can hang.
A simple saw toothed clip nailed to the back of the wood frame over which the canvas is stretched allows you to hang small paintings on a special hanger.
Like i mentioned before these windows are relatively lightweight and i usually hang them flush against a wall so i use the hooks and eyes with picture hanging wire to hang them.
