This is part of why I keep changing my mind, I think. <br /><br />Meg from Finally VERY HOT Nelson (summer!!!)Meghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01350447919000146804noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27254015.post-47264594362198948292007-01-24T07:18:00.000+13:002007-01-24T07:18:00.000+13:00I'm very short, Merisi, and I know paintings in my...I'm very short, Merisi, and I know paintings in my home are hung somewhat eccentrically because of it. Hubby and I took turns holding one of these rigs with a shawl hanging, and the other person standing back and looking, and we know approximately how high off the ground we want, buy my decision changes every time we try this. We also solicited the help of Tim and Claudia who have lots of experiences installing as well as showing their own works, so I'm confident I'll be able to make up my mind in the end.Meghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01350447919000146804noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27254015.post-10119909778354434922007-01-24T02:32:00.000+13:002007-01-24T02:32:00.000+13:00From my experience, regardless of the height of th...From my experience, regardless of the height of the room, the most important height to figure out is the point at which level you want the viewer's eye to meet the shawls, looking straight ahead. You could try this out at home, establishing the right hight for viewing from the bottom up, leaving extra cord length, to adjust later in the actual exhibition room. Trying this at home, would give you time to get a feel for the impact of the differenz way to hang the shawls.<br /><br />Good luck,<br />Merisi from snowy ViennaMerisihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16781937797213521146noreply@blogger.com
