Keep your art looking good

Hang your art away from sunlight & direct heat sources (like above a heater or fireplace)

Avoid hanging your art in humid rooms such as bathrooms, unless it is very well ventilated.

Don’t spray products directly onto your art or frame. Use a soft cloth for wiping & cleaning.

Most importantly - hang your art in a spot where you can look at it often and enjoy!

DIY Framing

endemicworld has a simple range of New Zealand made frames. Perfect for your next DIY Framing project.

  • Bend back the black tabs. Take out the foam core backing.
  • Gently wipe the glass clean of any dust. Place the print face down in the frame.
  • Put the foam core backing back in place. Bend down all the black tabs.
  • Seal the back of the frame with brown tape. Taping is optional, but we do recommend this step as it keeps dust and unwanted moisture away from the print.
  • Use the string height guide on the left for stringing the frame.
  • Screw a D-ring on each side of the back of the frame.
  • Thread string through the D-rings, triple knot it. You can also tape the end of the string to keep it tidy.
  • Your framed art is now ready to hang!

Hanging Tips

Use the hooks and nails provided. We don’t recommend using adhesive hooks as they’re not reliable long term.

For A4, A3 and A2 sized frames use a single picture hook to hang from.

For A1 sized frames use 2 pictures hooks placed 350mm apart. 

For A0 sized frames hang directly on the D-rings, do not string. 

The recommended height for hanging is the middle of the artwork should be 1500mm from the floor.

When hanging above furniture, the bottom of the artwork should be 200mm from the top of the piece of furniture.

For hanging a gallery wall the distant between each work should be 75mm.

You’re done. Enjoy your new art work!
