HANG & LEVEL™, NEW PICTURE HANGING TOOL, EXPERIENCING GREAT US DEMAND



One-Of-A-Kind Product is First to Solve Picture Hanging Dilemma



Calgary, Alberta, Canada—Hanging pictures and other objects on the wall has always been more of a hassle than it should be. Now, Hang & Level™, a unique new picture hanging tool being launched in the US, is being touted by several industries, as well as décor experts, as a “must-have” for every home in America. From single pictures to groupings, mirrors, clocks, and just about any object that is hung, this tool is quick and easy to use, making the daunting task of hanging wall décor pieces simple and fun.



A unique invention by Canadian interior designer Liette Tousignant, Hang & Level is a little yellow tool that has been pleasantly surprising picture hanging advocates with its ease of use and helpful nature. All the user does is place Hang & Level on the wall where they want the picture or object to go, push the buttons into the wall, hang their item and then level it out (easy-to-use levels are incorporated into the tool).



“As an interior designer, I found the most frustrating task was to hang pictures, artwork, paintings and clocks without punching dozens of holes into clients’ walls,” comments Tousignant, inventor and VP Marketing, Under The Roof Decorating™. “After discovering that there wasn’t a tool on the market to dispel this frustration I felt compelled to invent one. The positive response we’ve been receiving to Hang & Level has been overwhelming.”



Hang & Level is now available at retailers nationwide, including Linens ‘n Things and selected Bed, Bath & Beyond stores for $19.99. Additional retailers are soon to be announced.
