The mum-of-four, who goes by Mamma_y on TikTok, demonstrated the hack in a short clip online.

"Drilling the holes to hang a picture can be tricky," she said, as she whipped out a marker and coloured tape.

The crafty mum suggests sticking the tape over the back of the frame where the hooks are, and use a marker to map them out.

Then, transfer the tape to the wall and use a level to make sure it's straight.

All that's left to do is drill straight through the spots you'd marked before hanging the frame with ease - genius.

"Wow, where have you been all my life," one person said, adding: "I just eyeball it and have a million holes to fill."

Another agreed saying: "I avoid hanging things in my room for this reason/ Today is the day, thank you."

While one person shared: "Too easy. I feel silly."
