I’ve been wanting to find a way to hang pictures and art in Riley. But, because the interior walls are in such excellent condition, I didn’t want to make any holes in them. And, whatever you hang in the trailer needs to be light and nearly unbreakable. I decided a string or wire to hang things on would work best.
I had wanted to add a few more birds to go with the birds that are already cut out of the shelves. Then, miraculously I came across this Birds on and Wire at target (I sure do love target). I was going to cut out birds with a jig saw and rig up some wire/string contraption. Target saved me.
One problem was that they only came in black. So, I quickly fixed that with a little white spray paint. The hanging mechanism for this set required 2 screws. That was not going to happen. These wall have stayed in near perfect condition since 1948, I don’t want to be the one to put holes in them.
So, I used 3M’s command strip clear hooks and with a little wire I attached the photo wire to the hooks.
It’s going to fun to have a place to hang postcards, prints, photos and little memories from our trips. And I can add colors and patterns to the space, just like I would any interior.
#1 I love the way that turned out! Super cute!
#2 I LOVE command strips… super wonderful for lots of surfaces.
#3 Walmart has tiny little wooden clothes pins that would be super cute on that wire!
@Karsie Gene thanks, the wire came with 5 clips, but a few extras would be great!
