         How To Hang Decorative Plates

Step 1:
Measure the wall space to be decorated and lay plates out on the
floor. Arrange making sure to keep within the established wall
measurements.

Step 2:
When you're safisfied with the arrangement, carefully measure the pieces
on the floor and the distances between them, and mark-the wall, indicating
the upper edge of each plate as well as the spots where picture hooks must
go to accommodate plate hangers. To make sure plates on opposite sides of
the arrangement are even, balance a carpenter's level on a yardstick that's
aligned with the pencil marks indicating upper edge of each plate. If neces-
sary, adjust marks. Install picture hooks.

Step 3:
Fit plate hangers onto backs of plates and hang on hooks. If necessary,
gently pull the pronged ends of the hanger away from the plate so they don't
scratch the glaze.

Step 4:
To be sure each plate hangs evenly, check with a level and adjust as needed.
