How many times and how many holes does it take you to hang your home decor? If you are like me, my wall looks like swiss cheese before I finally get my decor hung level. A lot of my decor has the keyholes for hanging and I found it so difficult getting it right.
Here is what the keyhole looks like.
These are the things that you will need to hang these like a boss! Your decor piece, a small level, two push pins, and two o-rings. I found these o-rings out of an assortment kit found at your local hardware store. Your size may vary depending on the size of your keyhole.
The first thing I did was wrap the o-rings around the push pins. I doubled them over so it fills the keyhole tight and doesn’t want to fall out.
Then I inserted them into each hole.
I placed the level on top of my piece and held it up where I wanted it.
I just pushed on the piece to make small holes in the drywall. And voila! Here are your marks for your nails or screws!
This has worked for me every time and no swiss cheese! Let me know if you try this and how it works for you!
