Once the floor layout is satisfactory, transfer it to the wall using paper templates. A useful trick is to take the paper inserts that come inside the picture frames and tape them to the wall. For other items like shelves or mirrors, cut paper to their exact dimensions and tape these templates to the wall. Start with a central piece, such as the mirror, and work outwards. This method provides a clear visual guide for sizing and spacing, allowing for fine-tuning the arrangement without committing to nail holes immediately.
