Is your DH like mine--and almost every other guy out there? Hates putting holes in the walls? Must be an Y chromosome thing. I've become very adept at puttying and painting so he never knows I punched in three different holes until I finally was satisfied with where the picture was hanging. There will eventually be consequences for the subterfuge. You'll see the headlines, 'house collapses due to Swiss cheese plaster'; but, until then, I'm going to get out my drill and blithely hang the artwork.
This card reminded me of hanging Victorian oval-framed feathery things on a plaster wall sans a picture rail. That's what got me started on the hole-in-the-wall theme.
