One of the challenges of being a renter is that you may not have the same freedom to modify your living space as a homeowner. This can make it challenging to hang wall art in a way that feels secure and permanent. However, a few tools and methods can help you hang wall art without damaging your walls or violating your lease.<\/span><\/p>

    1. Command strips:<\/span>\u00a0These adhesive strips are an excellent option to hang wall art, and still be rental friendly because they can be easily removed without damaging your walls. Simply press the strip against the wall and press down firmly to activate the adhesive. Then, press the corresponding half of the strip onto the back of your artwork and press down to secure it in place. Command strips are strong enough to hold most types of wall art, including frames, canvas prints, and tapestries.<\/span><\/li>
    2. Adhesive putty:<\/span>\u00a0Similar to Command strips, adhesive putty is a removable, damage-free way to hang wall art. Roll the putty into a ball and press it against the back of your artwork. Then, press the artwork onto the wall, holding it in place for a few seconds to allow the putty to adhere. Adhesive putty can be used to hang lightweight frames and other decorative items. Still, it may not be strong enough to support heavier pieces.<\/span><\/li>
    3. Picture hanging wire and D-ring hangers:<\/span>\u00a0If you have a few frames too heavy for Command strips or adhesive putty, you can use picture hanging wire and D-ring hangers to securely hang them on your walls. These tools allow you to evenly distribute the frame’s weight across the wall, reducing the risk of damage. To use picture hanging wire, attach one end to the back of the frame and the other end to a D-ring hanger. Then, use a picture hanging hook or nail to hang the frame on the wall.<\/span><\/li><\/ol><\/li><\/ol>

      Now that you have some tools and methods for hanging wall art in a renter-friendly way, it’s time to start thinking about design. Here are a few ideas to help you create a cohesive and visually appealing display:<\/span><\/p>

          1. Symmetrical arrangement:<\/b> If you want to create a formal, traditional look, try hanging your wall art in a symmetrical arrangement. To do this, choose a central piece of art to serve as the focal point of your display, and then hang smaller pieces on either side in a balanced, mirror-image pattern. This arrangement works well in formal spaces, such as dining or living rooms.<\/span><\/li>
          2. Asymmetrical arrangement<\/b>: If you prefer a more eclectic, Bohemian look, try hanging your wall art in an asymmetrical arrangement. This involves placing your pieces at different heights and angles, creating a more informal and spontaneous feel. Asymmetrical arrangements work well in casual, laid-back spaces like a bedroom or home office.<\/span><\/li>
          3. Grid arrangement: <\/b>A grid arrangement involves hanging your wall art in rows and columns, creating a clean, modern look. To create a grid arrangement, start by selecting a central piece of art to serve as the focal point of your display. Then, hang smaller pieces around it in a symmetrical pattern, spacing them evenly apart. This arrangement works well in minimalist spaces like a kitchen or bathroom.<\/span><\/li>
          4. Salon-style arrangement: <\/b>A salon-style arrangement involves hanging many smaller pieces in a cluster, creating a dense, eclectic display. Pick a mix of small frames, prints, and other decorative items to create a salon-style collection. Then, arrange them on a large wall, overlapping them to create a cohesive look. This type of arrangement works well in a home office or studio where you want to creatively showcase many pieces.<\/span><\/li><\/ol><\/li><\/ol><\/li><\/ol><\/div>
