Quick Answer

Choose a print that fits your frame size, slide it between the two magnetic wooden strips, and hang the frame with the supplied wall hook at roughly eye level or about 145 cm from the floor. Keep the surrounding wall calm so the wavy oak shape reads as the feature, and change the print seasonally rather than restyling the whole wall.

Start With the Print, Not the Wall

The frame is the supporting act. Pick artwork with a little breathing room around the subject, because the wavy oak edge crops tighter than a standard rectangular frame and busy prints can look crowded inside it. Matte paper suits the natural oak better than glossy, and a print with a light or neutral background lets the wood grain stay visible.

Match the print to the frame size rather than trimming paper to fit. The frames come in A5 up to A1, so if you already own a poster, check its size before ordering. A print that is slightly too large will bow between the magnets and never sit flat.

Plan the Height and Spacing First

Mark your hanging point before you touch a drill. For a single frame, the centre of the artwork usually sits around 145 cm from the floor, which is roughly eye level for most adults. Above a sofa or bench, leave 15 to 25 cm of clear wall between the furniture and the bottom edge so the frame does not look like it is resting on the backrest.

If you are building a gallery wall in a kids room, lay the arrangement on the floor first. Keep 5 to 8 cm between frames so the wavy edges stay distinct, and mix one larger frame with two or three smaller ones rather than lining up identical sizes.

Load and Hang the Frame

Separate the two oak strips, position your print, and let the magnets pull the strips together. Check that the print is straight against the wood before you commit, because once the magnets close, the paper is held firmly and small adjustments mean reopening the frame.

Hang using the supplied wall hook, and use a level rather than your eye. Oak is heavier than a thin metal or plastic frame of the same size, so a fixing that only just holds a lightweight frame may not be enough here. For larger sizes, use a wall plug rated for the weight of the frame plus the print.

Style Around It Without Competing

The wavy silhouette is the detail, so keep shelves and side tables simple. A small night light, a stack of books, or a single vase gives the frame context without pulling attention away from it. In a child's room, hang the frame high enough that it sits above the reach of younger children, and keep the changing routine to a seasonal swap rather than a full rehang.

Rotate prints two or three times a year. Because the frame opens and closes with magnets, swapping artwork takes seconds and you never need to remove the hook from the wall.

How to Hang and Style the Frame: Step by Step

  1. 1. Measure your print against the frame size: Lay the print flat and compare it with the frame opening before ordering. The frames run from A5 to A1, so a poster that is slightly oversized will buckle between the magnets. Checkpoint: the print should sit inside the frame with a small even margin on all sides.
  2. 2. Mark the hanging height: Aim for the centre of the artwork at about 145 cm from the floor for a single frame. Above furniture, leave 15 to 25 cm of clear wall below the frame. Common mistake: hanging too high because it looks right while you are standing on a chair.
  3. 3. Fit the print between the magnetic strips: Separate the two oak strips, place the print, and let the magnets close. Straighten the paper before the magnets fully meet, since the hold is firm once closed. Checkpoint: the print sits flat with no bowing or curled corners.
  4. 4. Fix the supplied wall hook securely: Use the supplied hook, plus a wall plug rated for the frame and print weight on larger sizes. Oak is heavier than a thin frame of the same dimensions. Common mistake: reusing a pin or hook that previously held a lightweight frame.
  5. 5. Level the frame and check the spacing: Use a spirit level rather than judging by eye. On a gallery wall, keep 5 to 8 cm between frames so the wavy edges stay readable. Checkpoint: step back three paces and confirm the frame looks level from where you will actually see it.
  6. 6. Style the surrounding wall simply: Add one or two objects at most, such as a small night light or a stack of books, and keep the rest of the wall calm so the oak shape stands out. Next step: plan a seasonal print swap rather than a full restyle.
