Create an inviting vignette with wall arrangements

Picture-perfect wall arrangements are possible, you just need to know where to start. Identically sized pictures can be arranged in a grid pattern, says Seattle architect Milan Heger, whereas dissimilar pieces look better randomly displayed. Random arrangements work with other types of assortments, as well. For example, Atlanta interior designer Suzanne Kasler's collection of old and new sunburst mirrors hangs above a sofa in a loose, unevenly spaced solar system of sorts, as shown in her book, "Inspired Interiors," (Rizzoli, 2009).

"When the arrangement looks good on the floor, it's time to measure and sketch the entire group on a piece of paper, with dimensions," Heger says.

Alternately, you can experiment right on the wall using templates. Trace each frame on paper, cut it out and number it, and put the same number on the back of the corresponding picture. "I also mark exactly where the hanger or nail will be on the template," says Susan Tollefsen, a Raleigh, N.C., interior designer, who is vying for the $25,000 grand prize on the Web series, "The Nation's Next Top Model Home."

"Then I use painter's tape and start arranging the paper templates on the wall. I like for the pictures to be about 2 inches apart on every side," she continues.

"Once everything is in place and it looks well-proportioned, I nail my picture hangers through the marks on each template. Then, one by one, I find and match the picture to the numbered template, and then tear the paper down and hang the picture."

Often, the results of a little extra effort on the front end speak for themselves.
