Hanging Pictures - How to Hang Art - the 57" Rule
http://jackiejacobson.com/03/hanging-pictures/
Today's tip is about hanging pictures.
No Guess work -- No extra holes
57"
OK ... Here's the Rule
In rooms where you sit.
• Living/Dining Room
• Kitchen
• TV Room
• Home Office
How High should you hang pictures...
The center of the picture should be 57" from the floor is the answer. That's eye level
The main thing is to be consistent. Do it the same everytime.
It creates balance rather than having things feels scattered.
Here it is ... The Step By Step How to:
1. Measure and lightly mark 57" on the wall
Slide 10 - Empty wall with marks
2. Measure from the top of your picture to the middle (or take the height and divide by 2)
3. Measure the top of your picture to the tightened wire (a small amount)
4. Subtract this last amount to tell you how far above 57" your hook should go
5. Measure up from 57" with this last amount and lightly mark on the wall
OK ...that may be hard to follow...so I'll make it visual
Go to the Back of picture
1. The Picture is 20" tall
2. The Middle is 10" down from top (this should rest at 57")
3. Wire comes to 2" below the top
4. 10" - 2" = 8"
5. Lightly mark 8" above your first mark of 57" OR at 65" on the wall
There it is... the CENTER of all your hanging pictures is 57",
and you are just figuring out where the hook goes above it.
Whether you're hanging a single canvas art piece or a group of framed art prints the technique is the same.
All rules have an Exception.
I prefer 60" in rooms where you'll see the art when standing, such as hallways.
So the same rule applies, just change your number to 60".
Now get out that tape measure and hammer...
and have fun hanging so that both you and your guests will say WOW...that's a great picture!
