How to Hang Framed Posters Straight (Without the Guesswork)

Tools that actually help

A spirit level, painter’s tape, and a pencil mark beat eyeballing. Command strips need clean, dry walls and full cure time. Think about sightlines from the doorway and main seating position so the art lands where people naturally look.
