The King & McGaw site uses cookies to maintain "state". Put simply cookies are used so that the web server knows that you, as opposed to someone else on another computer, clicked on a particular link to request a particular page. This means that the server can serve up pages that contain the correct information for you, rather than for the other user who clicked the same link.
Suppose you had searched for images using the keyword "London" and another user had searched on "Paris". After viewing the first page of thumbnails you click the "Next" navigation button to see the next page of thumbnails. Without cookies the server wouldn't know that it was you who had clicked the link and to serve up the next page of London thumbnails rather than Paris thumbnails.
From the MY ACCOUNT or CHECKOUT pages you can add another delivery address by clicking on the ADD NEW DELIVERY ADDRESS link to the right of the currently displayed address. This will take you to a blank delivery address form. The first item in this form is a nickname used to identify this address, and it is this nickname that appears in the drop-down menu of delivery addresses.
When you are done entering the address click the SUBMIT button to save it.
Clicking on an order from this list will display the details of that order.

If done well, hanging your art can give you the most satisfying feeling. Stepping back and admiring the result of what you’ve spent so long planning, is the very final part in the whole art buying process. That’s why we feel it’s important for you to take the time to prepare and plan before you hang your art.
Make art the centrepiece of your room with these 3 steps on how to hang.
1. Be prepared
Before you start, make sure you’re fully prepared with the necessary tools to hand. These include a hammer, nails, a pencil (for marking the point where the nail will go), a tape measure, a screwdriver, screws, drill and a spirit level. Also, try to get someone to help. It’s a lot easier (and more fun) to hang pictures with a partner.
Remember, your custom frame is supplied with appropriate fixtures and fittings to suit the size and weight of the frame, including string. To support our larger, heavier framed art you will need to fix large brackets to the wall or use screws with support plugs. Bracket packs will usually state the maximum weight they can support on the package.
2. Decide where you’re going to hang your art
There are loads of fun and inspiring ways to position your art, but a good general rule is to make sure the centre of the artwork or group of art sits at about eye level. Artwork is best viewed at eye level and for this reason you will notice that art galleries, museums and other great art institutions all display their artwork this way.
Finally, have a good think about the space available on the wall and the features and furniture it might hang next to. Your artwork should always have enough even space around it on your wall, so that it doesn’t appear cramped.
3. Hanging your art
Once you’ve decided where everything will go, you’ll need to measure out your space and decide how best to centre your artwork. Make a small pencil mark on the wall where you want your picture to sit (the middle of the piece at roughly eye level) and another little mark on the wall for the nail (marking where the top of the tightened string will be). Canvas art is hung by its internal wooden frame at the back, so make sure the pencil mark for the nail is measured to fit that.
Next, hammer the nail into the wall where you have made the marking for the nail and hang your art. Use a spirit level to make sure your picture is straight and, if you want to, place wall mount tape on the back of the frame to keep it from sliding around.
Finally, step back and admire.
Taking good care of your framed or canvas art at home can ensure the artwork you love lasts for years. We've highlighted some great tips below, based on our customer's frequently asked questions.
How do I clean framed art?
Before cleaning, remove the framed art from the wall and place on a flat stable surface.
Frame
The frame itself can be gently cleaned or dusted with a soft cloth or brush. Avoid using chemical cleaning products on your frame.
Glass
Glass can be wiped with a clean cloth and household glass cleaner. A good tip would be to spray the cleaning fluid on to the cloth rather than the glass itself to ensure no visible marks are left and fluid does not seep under the frame.
Perspex
To clean Perspex, wipe very gently using only a clean, damp and non-abrasive cloth. Use either water or a mild Perspex cleaner to dampen, again apply the fluid on to the cloth rather than the glazing itself.
How do I clean canvas art?
To prevent the build up of dust and having to do a more thorough clean it's always advisable to dust your Canvas art regularly with a feather duster. Alternatively, use a soft dry cloth to gently clean. Avoid using a damp cloth when cleaning your Canvas art.
How do I pack my framed art for transporting?
- Find a cardboard box to fit the artwork within, making sure there's enough room for the bubble wrapping too.
- Next, wrap your artwork up in bubble wrap. The corners of your artwork are most vulnerable, so ensure the corners are covered and protected well.
- In order to add extra protection and ensure the artwork is snug, place packing material within the box and place the wrapped artwork within.
- Finally, use brown tape to close and secure the box.
