OK - I need some good ideas for a flexible picture
hanging system... Requirements ============ I want to be able to hang some pictures on a wall (plastered breeze block), but to have the ability to remove the picture and the hanging mechanism and have a nice blank wall left behind. Then some time later to hang some pictures again, but in different positions... for example see www.gillandroy.com/diy/pichang Current thoughts ================ It seems to me that I'm not going to manage to get a completely blank wall left behind when I remove a pictures. So the question is how to minimise the "damage"... One plan is to embed some sort of screw threads into the wall in a grid across the wall, that can be blanked off when not in use. This will enable me to attach/detach whatever hanging mechanism I choose. When detatched I'm left with a hole in the wall that needs to be covered in some fashion. Perhaps something along the lines of the mushroom thingies like these... www.gillandroy.com/diy/mushrooms Not sure exactly how to implement/procure all this - ho hum... Any ideas/problems/guidance/thoughts would be appreciated... Thanks, Roy |
