How to Properly Hang Artwork
At Saatchi Art, we’re committed to helping you discover art you love. We’re also dedicated to empowering art lovers to buy and #LiveWithArt confidently.
The helpful tips and DIY tutorials in our #LiveWithArt video series are aimed at making living with art fun and easy, instead of intimidating.
We’re starting with the basics. Check out the video above for a step-by-step guide to properly hanging all of your artwork – including how to map and hang a gallery wall. All you need is a measuring tape, picture hooks, nails, a hammer and a pencil.
With the right preparation and planning, even the most expert-level gallery walls are easily achievable. (Image: Kristofer Johnsson Interior Design)
