Hang & Level may be the season’s must-have items.
Hung up about what to get the person who has it all? Want to impress the do-it-yourselfer or decorating diva on your list with the latest and greatest gadget?

Look no further – an interior decorator turned Canadian inventor has created a picture hanging tool called Hang & Level that is sure to top wish lists from coast-to-coast.

After 10 years of persistence, Liette Tousignant has finally gone from her basement to the “big time” with her picture hanging tool called the Hang & Level.

As a decorator, Liette found the most frustrating task was to hang pictures, artwork, paintings and clocks without punching hundreds of holes in her client’s walls. After discovering that there wasn’t a tool on the market to dispel this frustration, Liette did what most people never do: took an idea and turned it into reality.

This new product is quickly growing in popularity and is flying off shelves of Home Depot, Canadian Tire and Home Outfitters across the country.

It is also available at Linens & Things, where it has been the top seller in the wall décor department since its arrival. Retail $19.99.
