Tips To Hang A Canvas Art
To make the process easier from beginning to end, you must follow the following tips.
- Before hanging, clean the wall.
- Measure your canvas art, especially the middle point.
- Measure the place where you will hang the canvas.
- Hang the canvas with its midpoint 60 inches from the floor and 10 inches from any furniture.
- Mark an X on the wall with the pencil.
- Then, put sticky wall-pads on the backside of the canvas to avoid scratches on the wall.
- Hang it and place it until it is in a straight position.
Ways To Hang A Canvas
Nails
If you want to hang small or medium-sized canvas, then you must choose small or medium-sized nails. Brass or steel nails will work best with the walls. They won't damage the walls.
Sawtooth Bracket
Consider the size of the canvas before selecting sawtooth brackets. Fix the sawtooth brackets in the middle of the frame. Put screws on both sides of the bracket to tighten the bracket.
Eye Hooks
Place the eye hooks on both sides of the wooden frame. Then, run the art wire between two eye hooks. One advantage of using eye hooks and art wire is that you can adjust the canvas as per your wish.
J-Hooks
Want to hang big canvasses? Then opt for J-hooks. Mark two or three spots on the wall with your pencil based on the number of hooks you are using. After placing J-hook in the perfect position, hammer the nail. If the hooks are put straight on the wall, the canvas also hangs straight.
Adhesive Strips
Before getting started with adhesive strips, make sure that the weight of canvas art ranges from four to sixteen pounds. Keep in mind, you have to place adhesive strips on four corners of the canvas frame.
