Love them like your children and they will take care of your health too !!!  

Another very interesting aspect....
The moment we see our finished homes we get inspired to put some more wall hanging or paintings... No harm in that...
Take very small nails & dip them in the same wall paint colour & let it dry...
Call a professional carpenter or an electrician who can use a drill machine & get neat fixing of the coloured nails which you need for the new additions to the walls that you want... This will help in not making the nail too visible & at the same time a profession touch of the drill machine will not spoil the walls... Always keep a small amount of the wall painting colours as you require the same for such type of last minute touch-ups...

 I hope Yamini all ur query is taken care of :-)
