Hang a Picture or Mirror with Two Fasteners - PEP BB nest.straw.hangmirror

I hung a mirror in my daughters room that used two mounting points. To help hang pictures easily, I have a picture hanging tool that is made from a paint stir stick, an old handle, and a screw. you hook the picture on the screw, line it up where ever you want it, the push it up against the wall, where it leaves a mark for the fastener.

I didn't have a picture or mirror that needed hung, but I did have this.

Also not a picture, but a sword mount with two hanging points. Difficult to get a picture while I was measuring and marking with the level, so my in progress picture is of one of the anchors. Even centred it with the window frame.

I took another picture with both anchors in, but I don't want to submit another edge case if it absolutely must be a picture or mirror. I was just assuming since the post above mine was neither a picture or mirror, but got approved. Could someone weigh in on whether my sword mount counts for this BB?

There was more than the usual staff discussion on your submission. Asking for feedback is totally reasonable.

There were three aspects that made it challenging.

1. It was not a mirror or picture frame.
2. You couldn't see the two anchors in.
3. It was agreed that it was not actually level. Note that the lines on either side of the bubble are there to help the eye see the actual center, where the bubble should be. It's not level merely by being between the two lines. The photograph must allow us to see this clearly.

Your submission also led to clarification of the requirements.

I would post a more traditional framed object for the purpose of this BB.

I'm not usually a fan of the more abstract art pieces. But my wife found this picture and asked me to hang it above her computer table. So I did.

This picture was hung up at a school. I forgot to take shots of some of the tools used, but they included tape measure, hammer drill, screwdriver, and pencil.

I measured from the ceiling and taped where the fasteners should go.  Put them in the wall.  Hung the picture and made sure it was level.

My wife likes to change the artwork on our walls fairly often.  Here’s the latest selection for our daughter’s room adding a double fastener system.  I used drywall screws to hang them.

This picture was previously mounted with one fastener and it always seemed crooked so it was time to fix it!

In this Badge Bit, you will hang a picture or mirror level with two fasteners.
