How to Hang Your Masks

Before hanging your masks, plan your gallery by specifying where each mask will go. Draw a plan on a piece of paper so you have a visual reference. A reference will make it simpler to remember what goes where when your hands are full.

Once you have your plan set, it is time to gather your materials. Here is two methods to hang masks, the wire method, the cord method, and the rail system method.

Wire MethodWire Method

  • Wire
  • Wire cutters
  • Pencil
  • Plastic dip
  • Nails
  • Hammer

Since you have already planned where your masks are going to go, measure and make marks for each individual mask on the wall. If you need to, number the marks to go with the masks on your plan (each number should correspond with the mask and where it is going to be hung).

Hammer nails into the wall where you have made your marks with the pencil.

The next step is to get your wire and mask ready. Pull out about nine inches of wire and cut it.

Make a small look with the wire and form the ends into 90 degrees. The ends are going to fit through the eye holes in the mask.

Next, dip the ends of the wire in the plastic dip. Dip at about five seconds going in and five seconds going out – so very slowly.

The plastic needs to dry for at least four hours. Once it is dry, put the look of the wire over the nail and the ends of the wire through the holes of the eyes. Adjust as needed.

Cord MethodCord Method

  • Pencil
  • Cord
  • Hammer
  • Nails
  • Scissors

Plan your mask gallery the same method as above. Hammer the nails in so they are ready to go when you are.

Cut a length of cord that hangs your mask. If your mask has holes, measure the cord through the holes before you cut it. If your mask does not have holes, you may want to use the other method.

Once your cord is threaded through the holes, tie it into a knot.

Hang the mask on the nail and you are all set.

Picture Rail Systems

Interested in hanging your masks without nails? Preserve the integrity of your walls and opt for a picture rail system instead. This process involves the use of rods, hooks, and wires to fasten blended-in rails where the wall meets the ceiling. You can fit these rail systems into the crown molding or paint over them, for full camouflage. You can hang masks of any size in any spot you want, and be able to mix and match with great ease. The cord system allows you to flawlessly rearrange your wall pieces. The weight distribution allows you to hang masks of enormous size as well. Certain designs come with lighting to enhance your collection. There are a lot of picture rail systems, so find the perfect one to create your wall mask gallery.
