Hanging Artwork Correctly

Artwork provides that perfect finishing touch for some of the most fabulous homes in Las Vegas.  One of the most common mistakes is hanging artwork incorrectly.  Artwork, photos, prints or paintings, looks best at eye level.  That means the center of the piece should be at roughly 60 inches.  This may vary depending on whether you are a tall or more petite family, but is a good general guideline.

When you are hanging pieces above furniture you should allow 4-6 inches between the bottom of the artworks and the surface of the furniture.  There should also be at least twice as much space between the top of the artwork and the ceiling as there is from the bottom of the artwork to the furniture.
