ABSTRACT:
A picture anchoring apparatus for fixedly positioning a framed picture on a vertical wall surface. The anchoring apparatus utilizes a fastener which has a sharp pointed penetrating member extending from a malleable metal strip. On the outer surface of the malleable metal strip is placed an adhesive pad. The adhesive pad is to be mounted on the frame of a picture with the sharp pointed end to penetrate the wall surface. The fasteners are to be contained within an elongated body which is divided into a pair of storage chambers with a level vial being included within the body separating the storage chambers. The level vial is to be utilized by the user to establish a substantially precise level position for the picture frame prior to physically causing the sharp pointed end of the fasteners to penetrate the wall surface.
