Can I get some help here?
Some time within the last month, I read on some blog somewhere about an idea that I really liked, but dismissed at the time. Now, I want to implement the idea, and of course, I can't find it anywhere.
There was a tutorial. It was a tutorial on how to make a rig to hold things on the walls. It involved wires, and on those wires were clips that slid along and could hold pictures or photos or other flat type items. I thought maybe it was referenced in Craft magazine. I thought maybe I had seen it via Not Martha or Whipup. I have an odd feeling that it was one of these places, only not directly, but after following a link to some other site or trail of sites therein.
Google has been of no help so far.
Does this ring any bells? First person to give me a link to the site I had in mind gets a special prize.
Thanks in advance!

Hi Shelly!
Sounded familiar to me too, and I've become a recent "ikea hacks" reader, was this it?

It's not the same thing you're talking about, but something similar:

I also don't have a link to what you read, but we did this in my older son C's room. We got some ~"1/16 cable from Home Depot (it's on spools, you cut off how much you want), two crimp ends (near the cable), and C chose four cool metal drawer pulls (soccer ball, fish, etc.). We also used an eye bolt because we went around a corner, but on a flat wall you wouldn't need that. We made a zigzag on the wall and crimped the ends. Not hard at all. Email me and I can write you a tutorial with pictures if you'd like. I should probably take photos of it anyway, come to think of it!

I"m betting it's this:

I've been meaning to make one too!
Maybe this one?
