Abstract: An article hanging system includes both a hanging tool and an attachment such as a pole. The hanging tool can be used individually or as part of the system and has a handle, a hanging arm, and an article hanger. The handle, adjacent its handle attaching end, is configured for removably attaching with a pole adjacent its pole attaching end. The hanging arm attaches the handle and the article hanger attaches the hanger arm. The handle also has a wall end for remaining stationary at a wall position, and the pole has a floor end for remaining stationary at a floor position on a floor in order that a hanging article may be displayed at a wall hanging position.

Abstract: A picture hanging apparatus aids in hanging pictures, paintings, or other similar wall mounted decorations. The apparatus temporarily supports the picture on a hanger such as a hook, which is suspended on a hanging arm attached to a wall end of a shaft leaning against a wall. The shaft, and thus by extension the hanger and the hanging picture, are moved freely until the desired position for the picture is found. Once found, the shaft remains in place against the wall while the picture is removed from the hanger. The position of the hook indicates where permanent picture hanging hardware such as a nail or permanent hook should be positioned in the wall in order for the picture to hang in the desired position.
