In these cases it may be easier to cut out scraps of paper the same size as your art and position them on the floor before categorically going for the hammer. (Incidentally, odd numbered groupings always look the best.) an additional one important consideration is size - make sure the scale of your art matches the size of the wall and furniture.

Make sure you have the top covered in glass or Plexiglas, and you have an instant side table.
