Any concern hanging framed art on a bathroom wall considering the shower steam and minuscule poo particles infiltrating the frame?

Yes, Proceed with caution. Temp and humidity will fluctuate wildly in that environment. I would not put anything highly valuable in there. Do you have a lot of air moving? A big, high vent fan pulling moist air out and good duct moving dryer air in?

What ^^^ said... I put a few inexpensive Keyes Tiny Showcase prints in, which help dress the place up without risking anything that's far more than a decorative pic from Target.freaksmeout wrote:Yes, Proceed with caution.

it is not a matter of if, it is a matter of when it begins to ripple. may be quite a long time or no time at all depending on the frame

I'd search EB for threads on this topic. It's been talked about several times.
I'm sure they all say about the same as what's been said here.punch wrote:I'd search EB for threads on this topic. It's been talked about several times.

the summary is dont hang anything on paper that you want to keep for posterity. hang a nice mccarthy or open edition fairey. something that you will enjoy and not have to worry about
