Here's a great tip - basically they suggest that if you are going to mount a few frames on a wall, plan out your layout on the floor first on a sheet of wax paper. Draw on the paper the outlines of the frames and where the nails/hooks will go.

Then stick the paper on the wall and nail in the hooks through the paper. Then simply rip the paper away and hang your frames! Genius!

Nowadays I mostly just put my photos in free-form groupings…
