@KivaBrent in powder room do you hang art (if not above toilet) at eye line when sitting or standing, or no art for hygienic concerns?

How can anyone hate their tape measure? It's such an essential tool when it comes to decorating.❤

The time my sibling and I made no less than four trips to the same Walmart on the same day because we kept getting the measurements wrong for blinds in the bathroom will attest to the importance of a tape measure 😅. Sad part is, I looked at the tape measure before we moved out from living with our mom, said to myself, "I'm going to put this with other important items because I'm sure we'll need this," and then the dang thing did a disappearing act anyways 😂. I think my brother finally had enough and just bought us a new one. I'm not sure if we ever found the original.

That tip re: 3M Heavy Wall Hanger came JUST IN TIME to save my wall when trying to hang favorite old, huge and very heavy painting! I have had it in closet for last several years because I didn’t want to have to use sinkers in the wall. 😊
Wow, Kiva! Like so many other commenters, I came here to say that you are looking especially fantastic in this video! Blue is your color, girl! 💙💙Hair and makeup on point. I always love your specs👓 and those nails! 💅🏾👍🏾
Thank you for these good tips. As temporary renters, hanging artwork is one of the most terrifying things. For some reason we never get it right the first time or make a ridiculously large hole in the wall. We don't have touch up paint here, which is so annoying, even for everyday scuffs, etc. Also, Kiva, you're going to need to become a jack of all trades and give us a makeup tutorial. You look flawless and natural.

Just use Command hooks or stripes😃
@user-do4gh7kl7u

@@passionfruitfruit I know the strips are supposed to be great, but I have a hard time trusting them. We've had a bad experience with them taking off a big chunk of paint - even when done correctly. We do use them on tile or any surface they can't harm. Knowing about the heavy weight hooks might come in handy.
EXCELLENT tips. I had no idea there was a level on my phone! Thanks for the 57 inch rule, that will save a lot of disagreement when hanging art with a partner.

I figured you could just download an app to use as a level, but is there a setting in phones that offers this without an app? Kiva kinda brushed past explaining that 😅

I literally have so much wall art in stacks that I've been wanting to hang but have felt too overwhelmed at the thought of, because I want to do it well. This helps me feel like I can do it. Thank you!
Those 3M Claws are the best! My husband and I used them when we first moved into our current house almost two years ago. He was very reluctant at first because you didn’t need to worry about finding a stud to hang heavy weight art. But, they do work as advertised and we even hung a 50 pound mirror with the Claw
Wow these 3M are a game changer

Remember to only hang lite weight items over head of bed, unless you attach it really good if you live where earthquakes might happen. My brother had an iron horse above his bed, luckily he rolled off the bed when the shaking started, that horse fell and landed in the middle of his pillow. My sisters friend was pregnant and had a plaster wall hanging over her bed. Her husband laid on top of her and that large piece fell on him and scrapped his back.
This is awesome! I’m glad I clicked on this video!🙏🏾

I just bought a painting and it came with a claw hanger with no instructions. We had never seen one before and didn’t even know what to call it when I googled it, so we didn’t use it. I’m kicking myself. What a super idea. Thanks for teaching us. Of course I’m sure they’ve been around for years, but I just never looked. 😊

As always, great tip! I'll have to try the claws. I know its sponsored so forgive me... I love the Hang-O-Matic to assist me with hanging items by myself. But 3M claws will be added now to my bag of tricks!
Your necklace is beautiful.
Jeepers. I want 3M claw hangers for curtain rods. I was thinking about getting new drapes and raising the curtain rods that last foot and I am not adept balanced at the top of a ladder nine feet in the air. If I could hang curtain rods without having to drill holes and drive screws I'd do it instead of just thinking about it.
You look absolutely stunning. I have some art to hang. 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾❤️.
Kiva absolutely divine. That jacket on you is chef's kiss. Any link?
I don't want to break my phone so I use only real tools. A professional grade large level can be found for like 10 to 20 bucks at Home Depot, Harbor Freight and other stores. I am used to hang things with all sorts of techniques and materials but I am always looking for innovations that make hanging easier, and those claws seem interesting.
Great tips and tools! Thank you! Can I please ask what is the type/brand of that faux plant at 4:04 in the video? I currently have one in my living room. After staring at it and navigating around it for a year, I think it's too large and full for the space, and I'm looking for something like yours...light and airy.
! Do u have a link for the arch black mirror shown in the video please? … and u look amazingggg!!!
You look great with makeup, but you don’t need it because you are beautiful without it. Thanks for the tips today.
Friendly
Good info..but more importantly..you look nice!
YOU LOOK SO BEAUTIFUL ❤❤❤❤❤
One more, don’t hang a small piece of art in a large area. Seeing an 8x10” photo on a large wall area makes it look lost.
But like, you always look great but you are killing it today, ma'am! You had a meeting today or you were just feeling yourself and felt like getting fancy? 😊 Since this video is on the subject of hanging things, though, I've had an issue with a painting for now over two years and haven't been sure how to handle it. My mom made a painting that she hated, but I loved, so I took it. It's kind of large, situated on something like a 3ft by 4 or 5 foot canvas. But...the canvas is bent. Because of this, it doesn't stay on the wall when I use 3M strips. I'm tired of having heart attacks each time it falls, lol. I was thinking of carefully pulling the staples out and framing it somehow. Have you ever heard of someone doing this? Or...given your grandmother is an artist, have you ever heard of a method to straighten out the wooden backing of a canvas?
Off subject, but you look gorgeous!
Kiva, you are so lovable. XOXO

I have a bench seat with a wall behind it. Should I hang art and hopefully someone doesn't bang their head, or should I just go with sconces and forget the art?

Put it at a level where the bottom part is a little over the height of someone's head sitting down or at shoulder's height, but it should a large piece that fits at least half the width of the wall. People subconsciously will avoid leaning on it if you hang it like that. Smaller pieces should go above the head a few inches.
I have a very heavy diploma. I have never been able to hang it, and i graduated in 1980 😅😅😅😅😅
Please!! Invest in a good laser level. You’ll thank me.
