PICTURE RAILS

I think installing picture rails has been one of the best things we have done in regards to our little freshen up a while back ..... 
so much easier than hammering in hooks, especially when you change things around as much as I do .....
and it was really inexpensive too ......

























 

















and they're not only good for pictures .....
..... I love them !!!

Too cool for school! Now... when you say "not hard to do" are we talking "you can do it yourself with a YOU TUBE tutorial" or "easy if you're super handy man" or "get a tradesperson and watch while drinking tea" ? I'd really like to do the same in my house but I am a little wary... :-)

never, EVER let on where you live / invite me to your house, because i would steal almost everything in it, starting with the artwork..! all of those pieces are so different, yet they create a wonderfully cohesive collection.

and the picture rails look amazing :)

We have alot of framed artworks but I dread the hanging process. Then again, seeing the previous tenants' holes also make me cringe at re-hanging my own pieces. Love the new look!
