Hanging a Picture Straight on a Wall

Are you looking for a quick and easy way to start hanging your picture straight on your wall?  Rachelle submitted this tip on how to hang a picture straight, quickly and easily every time using masking tape!

Lay the picture you are hanging face down. Take some masking tape or painters tape (anything that is not very tacky so it won’t peel the paint off the wall) and lay it over the hooks where the nails will go. Then use a pen to mark where the hooks are.

Next peel the tape off the picture frame and tape it on the wall at the height you want your picture to hang. Use a level to make sure it is straight.

Rachelle has hooked us up with a complete step-by-step photo tutorial just in case you need more detail.

    Oh Yeah Great! and I find this tip just 6 weeks after moving into our new home and after hubby has hung the last of about 60 pictures. lol Sure wish I had known about this great tip, it would have saved us hours of hanging and re-hanging. Can’t wait to share this with friends though. Thanks
