If you want to add a little flair to the way you hang your canvas wall art, why not use ribbons to hold them up on your wall? It’s an innovative way to present paintings. It also brings more attention to your wall decor. This style of hanging paintings is very suitable for a child’s playroom or bedroom. You can also do this for your paintings in your living room.
If you were to hang your canvas the traditional way, all you would need is a hanging kit, a nail, and hammer. If you want to be a bit more original, then you could use ribbons to hang your artwork. The ribbon should be visible on top of the canvas. The ribbon will become part of the artwork and your wall decor.
If you have decided on a particular painting that you want to hang this way, then you should analyze your painting’s colors and base your ribbon color on that. You have to let your ribbon complement your artwork, not clash with it or overshadow your canvas wall art.
You should also get wider or thicker ribbons for bigger canvas so the ribbon can support the weight of a heavier artwork. Use thinner ribbons of about an inch of smaller paintings. Stick with plain ribbons and avoid patterns on the ribbon. You don’t want the viewer to be distracted from the painting by a flamboyant ribbon.
When you hang your canvas wall art with a ribbon, more attention is drawn to it and it automatically becomes the focal point of your room. You only need a few things to get started with this project like scissors, ribbons, a nail, a hook for your wall, and hammer.
Hammer a small thin nail to attach the ribbon at the back of the canvas, not on the sides. Nail the ribbons on the left and right stretcher bars of the canvas. Lay your painting upside-down on a smooth flat surface with the back facing you.
Place a soft cloth underneath the painting to cushion the blows from the hammer. Hammer carefully to avoid damaging your artwork. You don’t have to hammer too hard because tiny nails can easily puncture the frame.
Install the hook on your wall a bit higher than usual. Remember that the ribbon will be exposed and when you hang your painting, your canvas will fall slightly lower than when hanging without a ribbon. Use bigger and tougher hooks for larger canvas, and smaller hooks for small paintings.
Hanging paintings this way in a series in your hallway or stairwell will also look cute. Don’t overdo the ribbon look in all your canvas wall art throughout the house. Use it only for a few pieces so it won’t look too commonplace.
