The decoration should be right side up. If you are not sure the canvas is right side up, lift the canvas to check. With a pencil, draw a small mark on the stretcher bar that is the top side of the decoration. This will allow you to remember which side is the top. The wire will be in the right location if you keep the canvas right side up. Beginning from the top stretcher bar you just marked, draw a pencil mark 1/4 to 1/3 of the way down the canvas's side stretcher bars. Look at the measurements of the canvas to determine how far down the mark should be.  For example, a painting that is 16 inches (40.7 cm) in length will have a mark about 5 inches (12.7 cm) from the top. Divide the length by 3 to figure this number out. Use the tape measure to draw a mark 1/4 to 1/3 of the way down both sides. Make sure both sides have a mark at the exact same spot. Screw each eye screw into the stretcher bar at the two points marked. Do not damage the decorated area of the canvas while attaching the screws. Add 6 to 8 inches (15.2 to 20.3 cm) to the width of the canvas to determine the length of wire you will cut.  For example, if your canvas is 24 inches (61 cm) wide, then your hanger wire will be 30 to 32 inches (76.2 to 81.3 cm) long. Measure out the wire length you need with a tape measure. Use long-nose pliers to cut the desired length of hanger wire. First, lay the wire down horizontally on the back of the canvas. Beginning with either side, make a knot by first pulling one end of the wire underneath and through the eyehook. Now, pull the wire half an inch through the eyehook.  Then, take the edge of the wire, and make a “P” shape by pulling the wire underneath itself. This should still be using only half an inch of the wire. Push the tip of the wire through the circle of the “P” shape. Then, pull the wire tightly. The “P” shape will disappear into a knot. Repeat on the other side. The wire should be slack enough to move 1 inch (2.5 cm) when hung on a nail.
