My husband took down pictures in our living room and there are now holes in the wall. I want to re-hang the pictures, but in a different place. Is there any easy way to cover the holes that are there?

Preferably without painting?

If you go to Home Depot (or the like) you can buy this stuff called DAP... Dap alex latex filler... it comes in tubes... big ones for caulking guns, or smaller ones with the gun not needed...
Squeeze a bit out onto your finger. It won't hurt, burn or otherwise discolour your pinky.
Fill the hole by rubbing the guck on the hole. Once it sets for about an hour, you can touch it with paint and it's done. If you push the guck real hard into the hole, you might not even need to paint it!
Give it a try...
GoodLuck!

Yes,
You get poly-filla or a similar filler.
Put a small amount on a putty knife, and spread into the hole. Then scrape away.
Let it dry, then touch up the paint.

There is something sells at home Depot called patch and paint, you apply it with your fingers and smooth it off and can paint over it right away,

you can use a lightweight spackling on sheetrock and you can mix some paint with it to match
