Sometimes the images we like the most are not the best ones to hang. If you have lots of images at your disposal, it's usually best to choose the most distinctive and professional ones. Wall pictures will be seen by almost every visitor to your home, many of which won't be able to appreciate the inside jokes behind embarrassing photos or goofy low-brow art. For your hall and living room, it's best to stick to standard family photos (professionally-shot is a plus) or traditional art - save your roadside velvet paintings for the basement and your naked baby photos for the photo album. If you plan to hang more than one picture in a certain wall space, that's great - by playing with the precise spacing and arrangement of the pictures, you can create striking visual impressions. Before you hang multiple pictures together, though, make a "blueprint" for your group of pictures - if you're confident you can erase it, lightly trace the pictures' outlines with a pencil, otherwise, lay your pictures down on a roll of paper and cut squares around them. Tape these squares to the wall to give you an idea of how your arrangement will look when the pictures are actually hung on the wall. It's much easier to adjust paper squares than to re-hang your pictures. Big pictures, especially ones you're especially proud of, deserve a prominent position in the room. Hang them at eye-level or higher on a wall where they'll be noticed. Give them priority positioning - a great picture can double as a room's centerpiece. Don't put them too close to any of the room's corners - you'll inadvertently give your art a "squished in" look.  A foot or two of room should suffice. Provided your picture doesn't absolutely dwarf other, smaller pictures, you use it as part of a multi-picture arrangement. If you're not sure how to arrange your big picture sensibly as part of a group, a good idea is to put it in one of the lower corners of the arrangement, with the second-largest picture in the upper corner opposite it. Line smaller pictures up in the two unoccupied sections of the imaginary rectangle containing both big pictures. You don't need to center rooms around massive landscape paintings or stuffy portraits. When grouped together in visually-pleasing patterns,  a cluster of smaller pictures can make for an eye-catching arrangement. Adjust your arrangement to suit the needs of the room you're in. Tight, straight vertical or horizontal rows can make the most of limited wall space, while large cloud-like arrangements incorporating pictures of different sizes can give a room a modern feel.  The most important thing to remember while making picture clusters is to make sure that the edges of every frame are at precise ninety-degree angles to each other (use a level to get your pictures perfectly straight.) Also make sure the distance between pictures is uniform throughout your arrangement. An added benefit of smaller pictures is that they're much more versatile than larger pictures. Stick a short row of small pictures in a crowded bedroom for a big difference or slip a few old family photos on a stairway for a visual timeline of your family's history. Generally, when grouping framed pictures, like frames should go with like. This doesn't necessarily mean that every picture in a group needs to have identical frames (though that's certainly a valid option.) Rather, it means there should be an overarching theme for all the frames in a certain cluster. For instance, a cluster of pictures where every picture has a black frame will look better than a cluster of pictures with some metal frames, some bamboo frames, etc.  Experiment with patterns - alternating blue and white frames in a checkered pattern, for instance. Patterns count as an "overarching theme" - more important than having an identical frame for every picture is to give the impression that the pictures were arranged according to some logical goal. When in doubt, remember - white and black go with almost anything.
