Hanging pictures in your bedroom, or any other bedroom in your home, adds visual interest to the room. Portraits or art can serve as the room's focal point or bring the decor together while displaying some of your favorite images. Choose pleasant, soothing images for your bedroom since it's a place for resting. Busy, loud pictures or art can cause your mind to keep working when it should be resting.
Instructions
1. Choose the pictures you wish to display in your bedroom. Groups of odd numbers, such as three, or just pairs of two work best. Two pictures is good for relationships, according to feng shui. The pictures should be the right proportion to fit in with the wall, furniture or area around where they will be hung.
2. Use picture frames that match or are similar in color, shape, texture or era. If you opt to use different frames for a group of photos, they should have at least one common feature so they complement each other.
3. Lay the pictures out on the floor according to how you'd like to arrange them on the wall.
4. Use a measuring tape and pencil to lightly mark where you will install each picture hanger or nail. Especially if a picture is heavy, be sure to put the nail into a stud in the wall.
5. Secure the nails or picture hooks in place with a hammer. Use the correct hooks for the type and weight of your picture.
6. Hang the pictures on the hooks. Stand back and look at the pictures to make sure they are straight and look appealing to you.
