Life saver for hanging frames at the same level

without comments

I highly recommended buying this FIXA picture hook box from Ikea. It’s only $4.99 for 116 pack.

The best thing in this box is the extra long picture hooks. It makes hanging frames at the same level SO EASY. I used it for hanging pictures in a solo show, with my eyes closed (kidding).
