Look at these juvenile delinquent cats, playing their zip-zap video games! They're up to no good!

I Bought One of These, Now How Do I Hang It? |
|
The easiest method of hanging a print is just to use bulldog clips and finishing nails. Alternatively, you could float it between 2 sheets of plexiglas, or use Posterhangers, or stretch a cable across your wall and hang up a bunch of different prints with clips (switching them out whenever you like). |
|
Prints and posters will live a lot longer if you display them away from direct sunlight. |
