I’m so happy about this! The past couple houses we’ve had, we’ve hung up a few pictures of the family, but nothing at all like what I’d like. I had many…many….many pictures in frames that you’d prop up on a table, but those had to come down once the curious kids came along. They’d been put away for some 5 years now.<\/div>\n
But then I discovered 3M Command Adhesive Picture Hanging Strips<\/a>! They’re basically Velcro strips that you attach to the picture frame and the wall. Now I could hang non-hooked frames up on the wall!<\/div>\n
I asked Dave if we could do a mosaic-style stairwell, and I was thrilled when he offered to put up all the pictures himself! I didn’t know how I’d arrange them, but I just told Dave, “Doesn’t matter the order, so long as they’re all up!”. I think he did a wonderful job.<\/div>\n
It looks eccentric, I know, but I love seeing all of our friends and family there.<\/div>\n
The next blog post is the wall on the other side of the staircase, which has plenty of space for more pictures. I have several from NC that still need frames.<\/div>\n
