1-General tips on how to hang wall decor

Every wall decor installation is unique, so adapt these tips to your specific situation. Following these general guidelines alongside your specific tutorial video will contribute to a successful and visually pleasing result.

Before Installation

1-Plan the Layout

Before you start, decide how you want the round wood decor pieces to be arranged. Whether you’re going for symmetry or an organic, free-form look, planning the layout on the floor first can help you visualize the final result.

2-Check the Wall Surface

Ensure the wall surface is clean and dry. Dust, dirt, or moisture could affect the adhesion if you’re using adhesive or could interfere with hardware installation. Also, assess whether you are working with drywall, plaster, or another material to determine the correct mounting method.

3-Choose the Right Hanging Method

Depending on the size and weight of the wooden pieces, you may use adhesive strips (for lighter pieces) or screws and wall anchors (for heavier items). Be sure to select the right tools that match both the weight of the decor and your wall type.

4-Measure and Mark

Use painter’s tape or a pencil to mark where each piece will go. Measure the distance between the pieces and their position on the wall. If you’re creating a pattern or design, sketch it out to ensure the placement is even and intentional.

5-Enlist Help for Larger Pieces

For larger or heavier wooden pieces, it’s a good idea to have someone assist you during installation to ensure it’s placed securely and safely.

During Installation

6-Use a Level

Whether you’re hanging a single piece or multiple in a pattern, make sure to use a level. This will ensure everything looks balanced and neat, especially for symmetrical or aligned designs.

7-Test the Position Before Committing

If using adhesive strips or hooks, lightly attach the piece to the wall before fully securing it to check if you’re satisfied with its position and alignment. This helps avoid unnecessary holes or adhesive residue if adjustments are needed.

8-Secure Anchors for Heavier Pieces

If your wooden decor is heavy, use wall anchors or screws rated for the weight of the piece. When attaching to drywall, be sure to use appropriate anchors or, better yet, attach the decor to a wall stud for added security

9-Consider Spacing

Be mindful of the spacing between each round piece if you’re creating a pattern. Uneven spacing can make the overall display look off-balance, so it’s essential to check the gaps as you install each piece.

10-Use Protective Pads

If the wood decor sits directly against the wall, consider placing small protective pads or bumpers on the back. This will prevent scratching the wall and keep the decor stable, avoiding any unwanted shifting.
