So much hardware, so little time. The good news for art lovers is that each picture-hanging tool generally has a specific purpose, and is available almost anywhere. But knowing that purpose can mean the difference between unnecessary craters in the wall and a personal gallery to be enjoyed for years to come. Greg Korczak, a home improvement expert at The Home Depot, also offers this tip in “Decorating 1-2-3” (Meredith, $34.95). “When hanging a big picture, you may not be able to see behind the picture to connect the wire on the hanger,” he says. “Place a larger washer over the screw or nail to give yourself a bigger target.” – Elana Ashanti Jefferson
