Hanging something on a frame lanai

[graciegirl]

I notice the lights on the porch are hung on some sort of thingy that fits into the contours of the siding. I don't want to punch a hole in the siding to hang my picture if I don't have to, and Sweetie would probably kill me. How do you hang a picture or decoration or plaque on your lanai wall??...and while I have your attention, what if anything do you have on your back porch?

We have a porch swing, a faux rattan love seat and two large matching chairs and ottomans, a coffee table and a side table. Oh and an all weather rug. And two candle lanterns.

When we had things hung on our lanai or outside of the house we called "The Village Hangman" His name is Roger Dudis and he lives in Bridgeport. That man can hang anything! Even a 120 lb. mirror that came with our dresser. He figured it out even when Southern Lifestyle installers could not.

Phone number is 352-430-3244

He's very reasonable, just does it to keep busy. His wife Joy gives those wonderful cooking and shopping classes at the college. Great couple! :coolsmiley:

Here are a couple places where you can buy siding hooks, if you need more...google siding hooks. I have some and they work fine.

I second the kudos for Roger Dudis. He helped with a number of things around my house and was just great. I'll bet he could hang something in your lanai even if you didn't have a lanai.
