How to Hang Pictures on a Wall

Hanging artwork and picture frames around your home is an easy way to create a more stylish look. In this video, learn how to position pictures and find out about different mounting options. First, learn how to deal with drywall mounting. Monkey hooks are great for drywall and frames with wire backings. Then, learn how to transfer measurements to the wall to get the perfect picture positioning. Also, make sure to use a stud finder to help find the best spot to hang your pictures. If you are hanging a heavy picture or mirror, you can use a mounting hanger. Use a stud finder before installing a mountain hanger, however you don’t need to look for studs if you utilize wall anchors. These anchors can hold heavy items such as televisions, mirrors and artwork. If you are trying to arrange multiple picture frames, try adjustable picture hangers. These hangers adjust easily so all pictures can be leveled with each other. Finally, learn how you can tackle plaster, brick and cement walls. Though they might be slightly more intimidating at first glace, using the right tools will make these hanging jobs much easier. Use a drill to create a small hole before nailing a mount on plaster. Also, for any masonry, use a drill bit and masonry screws. Then you just drill the hole and add in the necessary masonry hanger and screws.

HOW TO: HIGHLIGHT AND CONTOUR YOUR FACE!!!!

CHECK THIS OUT!!!! youtu.be Most of the tutorials on youtube when it comes to contouring and highlighting use powders. The reason i don’t – mainly – is because i feel with creams you are able to blend more. Plus, for me at least, the whole point of contouring and highlighting isn’t really about CHANGING the face its about making the face more “dimensional”. The face isn’t a flat – so i want to make sure i have dimension to the skin. This also means as a nice byproduct i can carve out “sharper” cheek bones or “slim down a nose” without it looking like dirty muddy patches on the skin. It also gives a “glow” to the skin. I know from reading makeup book (and i’ve only ever seen this technique once before) its used to give J-Lo her glow. As far as i know this technique is rarely ever used. I’m not sure why. Maybe people don’t know about it? But its one worth mastering. I think what separates a good makeup artist from a great makeup artist is contouring. Once the face is complete and lips applied – it doesn’t even matter if no eye makeup is used. Just a coat of mascara and WOW. Knowing you can highlight your best features and play down the ones you’re not happy with is a great tool to have. One thing to bare in mind please: If you’re skin is NC15 and below – then clearly highlighting the complexion might not be the best idea – as you might end up looking like casper the ghost! So concentrate on contouring more. If you’re skin tone is NC/MW50 plus you are better off highlighting
