Thank you for the compliment. I have a number of videos I want to create. Some are simple like creating fire starters for fire places or fire pits to how we built our wood fired pizza oven.

It's been about 10 years since I had to wire a frame and needed a refresher course. This was great, thank you so much!

Working as a software developer and as an aircraft mechanic I always had to have clear instructions. 😊

I really like how you show different views of the wire, to give us a better sense of how it should look. Thanks!

Glad to hear this was helpful. Personally I like my wife's water colors better than the acrylics, and mixed media but she always amazes me. I have no artistic talent but at least I can hang her paintings. We are running out of wall space. 😊 It reminds me of old TV shows where they have lots of paintings on the walls so everyone can enjoy the art.

Great job! Thank you for sharing, and it’s so cute to share your wife’s paintings at the end!

Thanks for the positive feedback. My wife amazes me. Her paintings start out looking like nothing I would even come close to recognizing and they turn out fabulous. She is the artist and I am the technician. I work with wood, resin, stone and steel, and she works with paint, glitter, fabrics, feathers, flowers... and the list goes on. We always have fun creating something new. Our latest are resin pyramids. I have to update our website with all the things we have been doing. Thanks for the encouragement. 😁

Thank you for sharing this elegant and thoughtful wiring technique. I love it.

Bravo-Great video - just perfect. As a designer I hang mirrors and art all the time,especially in my house - always changing. My professional framers make bathroom mirrors & frame originals & I always marvel at how perfect the wire & hardware are. Now you’ve given me the perfect concise answer - much appreciated.

Thanks, just wired a small mirror after watching this video and it hangs perfect. 3:51 to 4:25 was the part of the video I really needed to see.

Thanks for the caution on saw tooth hangers. For the shows I install (with track and cable hanging systems) they really won't work.

You can always put a tie wrap through the saw tooth hanger for cable hanging systems, but it isn't pretty and often is not allowed in galleries.

This was the best video I've seen on how to do this but I have one question. Where did you get the plastic wire that you're using or what is it called? Every time I try to find wire, all that's available is actual wire! And what is the name of the tool that you used to squeeze the nail into the sawtooth? Thanks

@liz-artcreations6633

We went to a local picture frame company and asked if we could buy the wire they used. They were kind enough to let us buy a box. My wife has painted hundreds of paintings so buying in bulk was worth it. The wire isn’t cheap but you get what you pay for. I believe the technical name is “coated picture frame wire” and I was able to find it doing a search online or on Amazon. It comes in different grades which I believe is rated to the strength of the wire to support specific weights. I believe our wire is rated for 30lbs. I am not sure what that grade would be. As for the tool I do not know what it is called. I bought it about 40 years ago from Princess Auto.

@@liz-artcreations6633 Thanks for responding I was able to find the wire on Amazon. As for the tool, if my father was still alive he would probably know what the name of it is. I inherited all of his old tools & a lot of them come in handy now & then. I think what I might do is stop by either an Ace Hardware or a friend's vintage auto repair shop & see if they can tell me what it is. Thanks for your help!

STOP!! 🛑 Unfortunately, he CHANGES the original install measurements well AFTER he demonatrates it. It should be 1/4 to a 1/3 down...NOT so close to the TOP of the frame!

@liz-artcreations6633

The 1/3 to 1/4 distance from the top of the painting is what I have seen recommended by others. Depending on the size and weight of the painting those would be the maximum distances I would ever consider and I do mention that in the video. You are welcome to use the 1/3 to 1/4 distances but that is not my preference because I like paintings to hang as vertical as possible. I have hung hundreds of paintings in galleries using the method in my video. When hanging a painting that uses the 1/3 to 1/4 distance from the top they lean away from the wall, especially on a gallery system where multiple paintings are hung on a single cable. If you are happy with how your paintings hang, that is all that matters.

Thankyou so much and Jesus bless you and your familly. This video was so much help and the method used is professional . 🤍🙏🙂⛪
