My name is Craig Hale. I am an interior decorator and I am helping Expert Village.com today
talk about ways to decorate your walls and different types of objects it is decorated
with and also how to even arrange them on your wall. Measure up in our case eleven inches
which is half of 22 inches and that is going to be where the top of your mirror will hang.
Next, what you will do is take and find depending on how your mirror is hung, this one is a
little bit of a bear to hang. You know is not just a simple one nail job. Do not be
discouraged. What you do is take your trusty tape measure, measure from the top of one
hanger over to the next and you get 19 inches. So after you have figured out the distance
between the two hangers, the next is to figure out how high it is from or how low it is from
the top of the mirror, which is 2.5 inches on both sides. So 2.5 inches for down from
the top of your mirror is where you will start marking your nails. So now that we know that
we have got 19 inches between the two spaces and we need to be down 2.5 inches, we will
mark the 2.5 inches down from the top of our mirror, take our trusty level, make sure we
get it leveled and then mark over from your center point. So now that we have our mirror
hung, let us recap what we did. We measured from the ground up five feet, marking out
the center point of our mirror, then we took the height of our mirror and measured up half
of that distance which was 11 inches, our overall height was 22. Then we found the distance
between the two holes in the mirror to hang. Measure the distance from the top of the mirror
to the top of the hole, had our level line drawn, nailed it and hung it and it only took
us a minute.
