Tips for Hanging Tapestries

Tapestries

Tips for Hanging TapestriesTypically, hanging tapestries is done in one of two ways. First, a wooden dowel is used. For this, the dowel would be cut to length with the ends being left slightly longer. Then, small cup hooks are inserted into the ends of the dowel after the tapestry has been slid in. The cup hooks should be placed on picture hook nails in the wall. Second, decorative curtain rods can be used for hanging tapestries. In this case, the homeowner would choose a style of rod and finial that works with both the tapestry and the room’s decor. Brackets would be used so that the tapestry hangs a couple of inches away from the wall. The final look in both cases is a sophisticated and elegant piece of art work. For quality tapestries, the price is generally high but this is an excellent investment.
