Moving the Paddle

Thanks to everyone who commented on my last post and offered advice about whether I should center the paddle above the office doors or center it on the wall.

Originally I had hung it centered on the wall.

I took a picture looking upwards so that you could see the massiveness of the wall that I hung it on...

Everyone who commented and the dear hubby thought it should be centered above the double doors to the office.

So I took everyone's advice and moved it today.

And I have to admit that everyone else was right. 

It does look better centered above the door.

I know, Jacob, I should have listened to you in the first place :)

Someone had asked how I hung the paddle on the wall...

I just put two short little screws into the back (one on each end) and wrapped some wire around the screws to form a loop, like this...

Then I put two screws in the wall and hung the wire loops onto the wall screws.

Another commenter asked about the paint pens I used to write on the paddle...

They can usually be found in the art section at most craft stores.

 These are the ones I used...

They are SO much easier to use than a little paint brush and paint!

So do you agree? 

Does it look better centered above the doors??
