You have a keen eye for taking photographs, but when it comes to artfully arranging them on a wall, the results aren’t so pretty. Replace your slightly askew lineup of mismatched frames with the Perfect Picturewall ($350,
www.thepicturewallcompany.com). This system comes with everything you need but the hammer to create a display of up to 13 photos (4 by 6 inches to 10 by 14 inches) in less than 15 minutes without taking a single measurement. In addition to 10 wood-and-Plexiglas frames (shown here in walnut), archival mats, and all the hardware, you get two reusable templates that guarantee straight pictures on the first try. Just position a template on the wall, mark the hook locations, hammer in the hooks, and hang. Choose from six set arrangements, or get creative. At last, hanging pictures is as easy as point-and-shoot.
