    The fork tip is genius. Can't remember how many times my face was pushed against the wall, trying to see the wire behind the painting, wandering if it just disappeared!
  • @rnswann6324
    As a retired interior designer, I appreciate your clever, but very practical tips. Thank you!
  • Great to see someone who has obvious knowledge and imparts it well. Congratulations!
  • @bluesky7226
    Great ideas! Thank you! When using the wrapping paper idea, you can use paper that has the grids on the back to help with leveling. 💕
  • @gwencunningham4297
    Great video! To the point and not a lot of talking, just pure instructions. Thank you so much.😍
  • @cindycooper1197
    I'm in the middle of painting my entire house
    on the inside, and I wasn't sure about how and where I wanted to hang the pics. I am so happy I came across your video. I really had no idea how easy it was to hang everything the right way. It's always frustrated me in doing so. I appreciate you & your wife for sharing. Thank you
  • @maxglitz
    I'm bookmarking this link and also sharing it with my artist guild. Art hanging in my home is a constant effort because I create it. It's only here briefly before going to a buyer or gallery. Every single tip here was brilliant, but the FORK has me wanting to set up an altar in your honor.
  • @lokeise7endeuce10
    Great tips. I have a suggestion for the toothpaste trick. I’ve found lipstick is less messy and easier to control.
  • Just helped my son hang some pictures at his new home. This is absolutely brilliant, and I wish I had watched this video before I started! Now, I'm checking for a video on how to fill holes on a drywall!
  • @dickebk
    Brilliant tips, and combination of video shooting with different visual perspectives and instructional methods man. I have worked in corporate for 10 years creating e-learning and training and can def appreciate both the really clever tips to use plus your videography and instruction and you had just a hint of the light music track in the background that didnt overwhelm your audio track! Macgyver would be impressed with your cleverness! lol
  • @garyjohn1956
    I hang lots of pictures and thought I knew what I was doing but this was awesome! Great job, thank you, keep it up, I love it and learned some great tips.
  • @babietonia
    The very last tip is absolutely genius! I’m doing a gallery wall for my room and this saved me.
  • @patphares6258
    Your tutorial is over-the-top excellent. Wish I had seen your video 50 years ago. All my pictures have been mounted with brute strength and awkwardness. Thank you so much for sharing.
  • @lordlem
    Great tips. When using painter's tape to transfer hole positions from frame to wall, remember that the technique reverses the nail locations. No problem if the mounting points are perfectly symmetrical, but if not the leveling or right to left positioning or both will be off.
  • @EdisonCPP2
    Very good tips, I can't tell you how many times I've made 5 and 6 measurements to make sure everything is exact! These are instant perfection!
  • @Roberto-REME
    Outstanding video, very useful home hacks and very well presented and narrated. Excellent production!
  • Love the fork idea! I'm comfortable with a measuring tape and level for quickly hanging all pictures, but that wire thing has stumped me for years. Brilliant!

    I've never used the command strips but loved the tutorial - unexpected in this video. Thank you!

    I installed wire closet shelving for several years. Had to drill hundreds of drywall holes on most jobs. Just use a piece of card stock type cardboard - like the cereal box. There's almost always a piece of it with the packaging of whatever DIY project you're doing. Fold it to create a "handle side" and a "catcher side" like the post it note - the sticky side is the catcher side. The catcher side needs a clean cut edge, the rest can be torn if that's what's quick. Then just hold that in one hand against the wall below the hole you're drilling with the other hand. Empty as needed. Very efficient and clean. If you're new to DIY, the taped versions may be easier at first.
  • I got here from the 7 clever painters tape tricks video and fell in love when he aligned the switch cover plate screws, thought I was the only one!!!🖖😁
  • @mousenation3867
    This is the most useful straight to the point east to follow demo ever, thanks
  • Fantastic! Very helpfull. The one with the fork is AMAZING. Thanks for sharing.
