Decorating with Pictures

 

 

We moved into our new home in February.  I still have many pictures to hang, shelves to put up and boxes yet to unload. I did empty one box the other day!!

A month or tow after we moved in, I asked my cousin, Merrilee to come help me re-arrange furniture and hang up some pictures. She came over and spent the day decorating my bathrooms, bedroom and we made the living room more symmetrical. We accomplished a lot that day, but I still have a tons of pictures to hang up! I used to have more shelving, so it was easy to place pictures on shelves. Now I have to hang them. Or go buy more shelving…

I have all these little pictures and I’m thinking of consolidating some of them into a larger frame with smaller opening.s And some pictures just may not make the cut.

I was looking around on line for ideas and came across these picture rail hooks that look really neat. I most like the cable hanging system. (At the top of this post) I think this would look nice in my hallway. The pocket hanging track would also be great in my kitchen. I could add calenders, pictures, artwork, really anything! I have the perfect spot too!
