Lay your new piece(s) of wall art on a table or the floor. If you ordered more than one custom wall canvas, move the art around until you find an arrangement you like.

Next, lay your wall decor on a large piece of craft paper or wrapping paper and trace around each piece. If hanging multiple pieces, use your measuring tape to evenly space each sign.

Mark the hanging points from the back of the art onto your kraft paper.
