How do I hang heavy pictures in an aparatment without ruining the wall

Question

I will be moving from a house into an apartment and I will want to hang my art abd pictures. My style ous very much old English and I have some heavy frames. Even if I just prop them against the wall there are still smallers frames that will need to go on the wall. Either way, I dont want to damage any landlords walls. Any ideas?

Linda · Answer

Here is an idea that should leave your landlords walls in good shape. There are picture hangers at the hardware store. They distribute weight based on the weight of the picture. So if your art is 20 pounds then you would need a 20 lb hanger. This will make a tiny hole in your wall but when you move it you purchase some painters putty you can easily dab some into the tiny hole and it will be as if it was never there.

Try Gorilla hooks. I hang all my pictures with these, and they only leave a tiny hole.
