How to hang a poster or photo yourself? A manual from WallArtistic

Decorating your walls with posters or photos is a great way to add personality to your space. At WallArtistic, we understand that not everyone has experience hanging art, so we’ve put together a simple guide to help you out. Here are some effective and stylish ways to display your new artwork.

1. Self-adhesive double-sided strips

Ideal for the DIY enthusiast on a budget, these double-sided adhesive strips are a simple and efficient way to hang posters without tools. They are strong enough to hold up to 1kg and will not leave a trace when removed. Make sure you press the strip firmly against the poster for optimum adhesion.

2. Elegant wall hangings

For a subtle addition to your wall decor, try our plastic wall hangers. They clamp the poster at both ends, ensuring it hangs taut and smooth. These hangers come in a range of sizes and colours, so you’ll find something to match your interior.

3. Stylish plexiglass frames

Enhance the look of your artwork with our plexiglass frames. They offer a clean, modern look that accentuates any artwork. Available in a variety of sizes and colors including black, white, and wood tones, our plexiglass frames are easy to use and add a luxurious touch to any space.

4. Custom frames

For the ultimate in personalisation and protection, we offer custom framing. Choose from a wide range of finishes including wood and modern plastic. We laminate your poster to a sturdy panel before adding the frame, so the end result always looks professional. This method also helps protect the poster from bending or tearing.

Tips for hanging

• Location : Determine where you want to hang the poster. Consider light sources and viewing height. Eye level is usually the best choice.
• Safety : Use a tape measure and a spirit level to ensure your poster hangs perfectly straight.
• Protection : If you decide to drill or nail, place a piece of painter's tape on the wall first to prevent damage.
