How do I choose between art and a mirror for my foyer?
It depends on what you want to accomplish.
- Art adds color, warmth, and personality to your home.
- Mirrors enlarge and expand a room, are handy to have for that last glance before a night on the town, and can make a powerful fashion statement.
I want to place a large piece of framed art in our foyer, but how can I hang it securely?
This is not a problem if you have the right hanging hardware and a hammer. The best hanging hardware for most walls is the J-hook. It is designed to keep the nail that goes into the wall at a sharp angle, so that even in drywall, it will stay in place.
It is important that the J-hook be properly weighted for the item you want to hang.
- On all Uttermost large framed art, we include the proper J-hook and nails to make sure you have exactly the hardware you need for hanging each piece.
- Note that Uttermost small and medium-sized framed art comes pre-wired for easy hanging.
- If your Uttermost framed art is not pre-wired, it is too large to be hung by wire. Please use your J-hook hardware to support and hang this item properly.
