Painting a photo frame
Hello
I intend to paint a small picture frame and planned to allow it to dry by hanging it by a piece of string to a curtain rail so that it wouldn't touch anything while drying, but it would show the mark of where the string had been, wouldn't it, when dry?
What is the best means of allowing it to dry without showing any marks where it may have touched anything?
Thank you.

I usually screw a small screw into a place that won't show when the frame has art in it, such as the inside edge, and then use a piece of string or wire to hang it from the screw. Sometimes you can use three screws or brads to make little feet and then you can just rest on a surface instead of hanging.

I didn't realize the frame had a picture in it. You could still place a wide slat or two just short of the width of the frame under it and set it on that. I also like CT's suggestions.
