Hi there, I am thinking about hanging art on our dining room wall, as the parsons chairs will be up against the wall, I know this is not recommended, but this is the space I have. The question I have is how high above the top of the chairs should I be placing the bottom edge of the art? I look forward to hearing your comments. Many thanks

In reply to Sylvia. I would probably go 4-8" over them. You just don't want to hang the art too high.

[…] your space has low ceilings, or you’re taller than most, you may want to consider a tip from The DIY Playbook and visually divide your wall into four vertical sections, placing your piece of art in the third […]

In reply to Kerri Hansen. Kerri, we feel ya! The struggle is real! And once you notice something like that, it's so hard to not notice it. It's always staring back at you. Love the idea to spray paint them white..what do you have to lose? Plus it will give you a chance to re-hang them the way you want them.

I have definitely made some rookie mistakes when it comes to hanging pictures/art and have the holes in my walls to prove it, lol! One thing that was pointed out to me by an interior designer was that I had too much space between the frames of a gallery wall in my living room. I hadn’t thought of that, but now that she has pointed it out, it does bother me, not that I have fixed it yet! My current struggle is that most of my current picture frames are black and a bit more traditional and now as my style is evolving, I find myself drawn to white frames with clean lines. It would be so costly to change out all the frames in my house, so I thought about spray painting them white? What do you think, good idea or waste of time?
