Correct Height
to Hang Art

Don't hang art at eye level. P'Simer stands
a petite 5 feet, while her husband measures
in at over 6 feet. If he or she hung a painting at his or her eye level it would look too
low or too high to the average houseguest.
Instead, P'Simer tells clients to hang the top
of a painting about a fourth of the way down
from the ceiling.
When centering a piece of artwork above
a sofa or a credenza, hang it about 18 inches
above the furniture piece, P'Simer says. "That
will keep people from whacking their heads
into it, plus it gives a break between the couch
and the top of the picture," she explains.
Bonus tip: Those adhesive picture-hanging strips? They don't work, says P'Simer.
Clients have brought her several pieces of
artwork that were hung with those strips
and fell off the wall. "Patching a nail hole is
much easier than having to repair a busted
frame," she says. I
