How to Hang A Picture The Right Way
Hanging a frame on a wall can be simple. Pick your spot, hammer a single nail and hang. Right? But, do you know how to hang a picture with two hooks? More specifically, do you know how to hang a picture with two hooks without creating too many holes in the wall?
This is a very easy and simple trick that will change how you hang a picture forever! You will need some masking tape or painters tape, nails, a hammer and a level.
Take a piece of tape and be sure to cover both spots that hold the nail.
Use the nail to poke tiny holes where you'd need the nails to be on your frame. Alternatively, you could draw a dot with a marker.
Hang your tape where you want your picture to be and make sure it is level.
Hammer your nails in where the tiny holes are that you poked. Then pull the tape off.
Hang your frame with ease now that you have used this handy trick.

Have a question about this project?
I missed something. So I poke holes in the back where the hangers are. Then you jump to the tape on the wall and tap nails in where the hangers will go. How do you know where the hanger nails should be on the wall?
This is brilliant
