photo clothes line?

Postby jdear on Thu May 25, 2006 4:02 pm

Hello all,
I remember seeing somewhere a miniature "clothes line" setup for hanging your photos on, one you would mount on the side of a wall with various wire's running across, and you peg your photos onto it with minature pegs. - A simple system for hanging recent photos on.

Does anyone know what im talking about? Did i see it somewhere at IKEA? their online product category doesnt have anything like this in it. Maybe a trip to bunnings for a 'home-made' version will be in order.

Many thanks!

Jonathan

Gheotto it man!! Maybe drill 2 holes, 2 plugs (make the holes shorter so the plugs stick our a bit) two screws 1 length of wire wrapped around the screws. Use a crimp of some kind to hold the wire.

I was thinking of the halogen lamps ive seen held by the wire...

Not real! I think Geoff and Oneputt have the photo hanging system in their houses.
