DIY ideas - How to sort out wall pictures
What's the easiest way to put up wall pictures?
If you want to put up a group of pictures on a wall, try first with some coloured paper sheets. You can do this by yourself following these steps:
How it works:
- Cut the sheets at the size of the pictures
- Stick them on to the wall using sticky tape
- Stand back and check the order and distance between the pictures. Correct if necessary
- Place the nails and screws at the intended spot and press them onto the wall while perforating the sheets
- Tear off the paper and hang up the pictures
Would you like it even easier, without having to make holes?
Our magnetic photo walls are very easy to put up and to swap around. Simply stick the provided magnets on the wall with adhesive tape. This will allow you to change their places whenever your like.
