You’ll definitely want to eye it and see if the standard height works for you (it worked great for our pendant light in the dining area) but they say a chandelier or pendant should hang about 34″ above a dining table. Hope it helps!

Good Morning Youngsters! I was wondering how many inches from the table a chandelier should hang?

Thanks so much!

Hey Katie,

Stay tuned for a big framing 101 lesson coming soon, but until then we’ll tide you over with this: lower eye level is always better. You want art on the wall to relate to the things around it, so if you’re hanging something above your sofa, console table or your mantel you want it to be close to those things so it has a visual relationship with them (and doesn’t look like it’s flying high). I’m 5′2″ and my eye level is what we used to hang almost everything in the house (so it feels inviting and the ceilings look even higher)- feel free to use that as a guide! Hope it helps…

Hi Youngsters! I was wondering if you had any advice on photo placement on the wall. I have always heard that you should hang things at eye level, but where is that exactly since people are different heights.

Thanks,
Katie

Okay, so THANK YOU for this post! I immediately forwarded it and a link to ZGallerie to my husband as a tongue-in-cheek “here’s what I’d love for Mother’s Day” suggestion. He’s currently living across the country looking for work so the kids and I can move out and join him, and I really didn’t expect a thing. Today, I received a ZGallerie gift card in the mail for Mother’s Day. Now the only question is…can I wait until we move and set up house before spending it!?

That third one looks great! The grouping feels so balanced, and I like how the third one added underneath the other two makes the whole grouping feel more connected to the chair. Lovely!
