Rasterbator wall mount collage
Materials: 1x Tacksam Curtain rod set, 1x Dignitet curtain ring with clip
Description: 1: - measure your wall, make your photo collage with rasterbator and laminate your prints (I laminated mines matte).
*Tip: place a little number on the back of the prints for ordering, you can lose track of the order and start assembling a jigsaw out of the prints.
2: - install Tacksam curtain rod on the wall with screws or like I did, with a good double stick tape.
3: - trace easily the middle of all the prints and make holes with a nail - in the upper and bottom part (don't put holes at the bottom of the last raw of prints).
4: - install the Dignitet clips hanging from the curtain rod and clipping the first raw of prints, then hanging from the bottom of prints and clipping the next ones.
5: - assemble the rows of prints to the curtain rod and enjoy a nice collage and a prettier wall.

Looks very nice. Perhaps it will look even better if you use 2 hooks per page? That way, the pages will be more straight down?
ReplyDeleteI love this idea. I will do it with my cavalier photos! Thanks!
ReplyDelete@ Anonymous Ye you are right, I will try and re-laminate the pages for a more straight look in the near future.
ReplyDeleteVery good job! It looks amazing. I agree that two hooks per picture would make it look even better. That's a fantastic idea.

This is a great idea. It would create a very unique look that's a nice change from typical wall art.
ReplyDeleteThe fact that good double-stick tape is enough to hold this up makes it a practical option for people who are renting, too. I like this idea, even just as a way of displaying a few individual photos without having to drill holes in the wall (though, I definitely like using it to create a giant poster like you've done here).

ReplyDeleteYes, I used double-stick tape because is really hard to drill a hole in my house's concrete walls. Glad you liked it!
Wow very cool!! beautiful picture!
ReplyDeleteThank you for this. I have actually been looking for a program that will do this for some time now and this is great idea for hanging/displaying it.
ReplyDeletehow do i print this it one by one?
ReplyDeletelooks amazing. thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteThis is totally what I'm looking for cos my wall can't be drilled as well. Thanx a lot for sharing this. Cant wait to try it out :D
ReplyDeletereally cute idea. thanks for sharing
ReplyDeleteHi! I love this idea. How did you get the cat to be dotty like that?
ReplyDeleteWhat a great idea! I'd surely go craZy myself though, IF I ever even got close to trying it!
ReplyDeleteec,
ReplyDeleteI brought DIGNITET (pack of 24 clips), I wanted to take out the open-end hook (that is hook on the clips) and change it to change it with close end, coz I dont' like the open-end hook too thick.
It's thinking about how to change it .
