Can you hang pictures at an angle? How?
Our new house has a loft space that we will use as an office. The loft is built right up to the rafters so the walls are angled with the roofline. Is it possible to hang pictures at that angle? How?
Re: Can you hang pictures at an angle? How?
Don't hang it angled...
Hang it low enough from the roof that you can hang it straight. If you can't do that, find smaller art.
For clarification, you're talking about hanging them level, but on the part of the wall that is up against the rafter, right? Not randomly hanging with the corners of the art hanging toward the ceiling?
I am pretty sure that velcro or 3m strips are your best bet.
I did this in my sons' room. I just did two hooks and two hangars, one on top and one on bottom. It was a pain to get them on, but it worked. My coworker was telling me about some kind of new hanger that would work for this...I can't remember what he said it did. I'll try to ask him tomorrow!
Our office-loft has big windows along the two vertical walls leaving no flat wall space. The two angled walls are the inside of the roof. This combo maximizes the space and light but leaves me no vertical space to hang any photographs or artwork. It is large room so I can float the furniture away from the walls so that no one will hit their head working at a desk. I was trying to come up with a way to hang artwork and photographs to break up the bare angled walls.
Thank you to all who posted. We are still unpacking and sorting and then we get to decorate.
