*Display photos, mirrors, paintings, etc. in a pattern using a Stencil
The functional format below can be achieved using a cut out stencil of a photo or painting frame, by laying out all your picture frames on the floor and moving them around until your arrangement is exactly how you want it before putting nails into the wall. These are then  hung one after the other on the wall using the stencil as a guide on the intended wall or door — or anywhere you have space so you can display photos, postcards, or doodles. The best part is that you can re-arrange the frames layout to suit the space you have got.
