· Center a large piece such as a framed family portrait, a piece of art, or a mirror
· Use a variety of heights to create levels
· Layer your objects by arranging smaller items in front of larger ones
· Don’t feel like you need to drill a single hole – lean pieces against the wall
· Don’t overcrowd the space, sometimes less is more
· Group like items in odd numbers, for example, group together three candlesticks instead of two
