Where to hang art/photos on basement walls? pics
Comments (11)Ah! :) Then I suggest that you add small white shelves (stagger them on the wall) to the wall above the pub table -- and then add bits of large and small white coral to them! And then add a very large white seashell to your pretty mirrored table .... And perhaps add a vintage seaside travel poster to the wall to the left of the sectional .......See MoreHanging Art on Plaster Walls
Comments (14)Here's the best method from my framing Pros who hang art at Memorial Art Gallery, and advised me years ago. YOU NEED: The tiniest !!!! picture hooks and nails. You need the heaviest hammer you can lift. DO NOT......hit the nail with any force. You are a "woodpecker" .....lightly, lightly tap, tap. tap tap. with much patience. Your reward will be a nail that absolutely holds, that does NOT hit the lath and bend to uselessness, but grabs the wall. without that "shatter" effect on the plaster.. Try it. You'll see. You can try Command, but they need a very smooth surface. There can be an orange peel effect to some plaster. ........they may disappoint...See MoreHanging Wall Art/Sofa location
Comments (10)Here are a few photos from the latest rearranging. The only drawback I see so far is that the path from the doorway into the room is narrowed by having the sofa and coffee table pulled over to be centered at the window. The piano sits where it sits to allow access to the wall outlet but it can move to the left 10" to center it on that wall, which might help it feel less cramped near the doorway. Also, the harp player wood cuts could go over the piano but that's a lot of brown wood above brown piano on brown floor. The piano is 38" high and the wood cuts are 28" high. If I was shooting for 5' to the center of the artwork I would have 8" from the piano to the bottom of the frame, if I'm thinking correctly. Could those pieces be hung on the wall where now you see a wooden arm chair with the white cushion, or is that a no-no? The entryway is from our foyer and we would love for people to get a peek at them when they come into our house....See Moresize of art work behind couch+lamps
Comments (3)The best way to get advice here is to show pictures of the space along with pics of what you have in mind for art. Dimensions of furniture and art are helpful, too. Maybe someone can give you a mock-up with the pictures and info....See Moreremodeling1840

2 years agoWhy not get one of those tile pieces of art they are usually made up of several tiles in a frame. Myself I dislike anything but backsplash, the same as the rest of the kitchen, behind the range except of course no quartz there.

2 years agoBecause we could never decide on tile for the kitchen backlash, I hung a mirror over the cook top in previous home. The mirror material was not made of wood. It looked like stained wood, but was some other material. I never got more than a speak of grease on the mirror, and it was very easy to clean. The iron people figures did get dirty occasional, but easy to wash off with soap and water.

I have an induction cooktop and I very seldom fry anything. I like the way an old handpainted tray looks for a bit of art.
