" My name is Craig Hale, I am an interior decorator and I am helping expertvillage.com today talk about ways to decorate your walls and different types of objects it’s decorated with and also how to even arrange it on your wall.

There are different sizes, some are little bit smaller than the others, but they are all rectangles. So what we are going to do is we are going to graduate the sizes as we started doing here. We are going to put the largest one on the bottom and work our work way up. So again, we are making basically a pyramid; the heaviest piece on the bottom and then working our way up. Again we also incorporated to make this a little more cohesive and put together. We are only using things that have got a black frame around them or we have actually found things that had a black frame. So we have got that done; we go up here, we are going to mark, nail and then hang it.
