How To Hang A Gallery Wall

The first thing you have to do is decide on the wall where you are putting the gallery wall. Then, you need to decide how big you want the gallery wall to be on that wall.

Leave a 10-12" distance between the gallery wall itself and the edges of the wall.

Tape the gallery wall off once you have the edges measured.

Now, choose the items for your gallery wall.  Then, it is time to figure out where they will go on the gallery wall.

Use brown craft paper, newspaper, old wrapping paper, etc., and trace the outline of each item on the paper. This is the easiest way to see it come together before putting holes in the wall to hang the items.
