There have been times that I thought my relationship was on the rocks. Not because of lack of trust or infidelity. Rather, it was home improvement DIY that risked doing us in.
Perhaps that is slightly hyperbolized, but seriously, how could such hostility and frustration come from hanging pictures on the wall?!
Anyway, this time around, I decided to try to decrease the stress.
I turned to the all-knowing Pinterest and once I gathered my ideas, I was off to work. We laid out all of the frames that had to be hung and covered each with enough large napkins to create a "mock frame" of sorts.
This allowed me to create a layout on the wall with the exact size, and spacing needed for each frame. I was able to easily rearrange until I found a satisfactory set up with no harm or foul done to the walls. Then, when I was satisfied, C just had to drill a screw into the marked spot on each "paper frame" and then remove the paper and hang the real frame.
The whole process took less tha an hour and had such satisfactory results.
