How to hang a drawing on wall.

If you have really low ceilings less than 8 9 divide the vertical length of your wall into quarters and hang your art in the third quadrant up from the floor. And if you re hanging art above a sofa allow for 8 10 inches above the sofa back even if this breaks the 57 rule. Click the select objects tool then click on the frame and click the open object edit button. Place the frame into the plan.

Hammer the nail into the mark with one or two quick hits. Lightweight art paintings on board and works on paper for instance can be affixed to the wall without any concern of excess weight taxing the hanging device or damaging the piece itself. You can then simply rest the edges of your frame on these screws to hang. Without a frame however hanging a drawing takes a bit.

There are a few exceptions to this rule. Hang the canvas on. Find the studs in the wall and partially screw two screws in at a distance suitable for your frame. When a drawing is in its own frame hanging it on the wall is a fairly simple undertaking just find a nail and or two and hang the frame.

You ll need one or two nails depending on canvas size. Measure that difference from your mid point mark on the wall that s where the nail or picture hanger or wall anchor or brick clamp goes. Note some frame objects are designated as mirrors. Hang your frame on the wall.

Prepare the wall and place your mark with a pencil.
