Help a sister out!




Hello friends! I have a dilemma! This beautiful house came with some stipulations...no shoes to be worn in the house (brand new white tile) and no nails in the walls...I know (sigh) but it is just me so I can adjust... besides I can wear houseshoes or socks, however, the picture hanging sitation is different! Have any of you used these products above and do they work? I have so many things I want to hang up! Please let me know what you think. I emailed this company in the picture,can get a $1.00 coupon off of their website but I want to get your opinions before moving forward. Please send me any opinions or ideas!!

Bargain Decorating with Laurie said...

Lilly, I wish I could help, but I've never used this product. I have used those tiny little wires (I can't remember what they are called, but they used to be advertised on t.v. all of the time-now they are in some stores) that hold heavy things. They do not leave enough of a hole in the wall to be visible, and they work well. Good luck! laurie

Yes. I am happy to report that they do work.

Hi Lilly! Do you remember my post about how I hang pictures and what the walls look like? Do you expect me to know about these????lol lol (just kidding) I have been using the plastic version of these on the insides of my cabinets and although nothing heavy is on them they have held up good; never tried this type but I suppose it might be better than no decoration on the walls???I guess they've had people like me there before - sorry! Guess you may have to use furniture with pictures leaning against the wall instead or hutches filled with decorative items; Good flea market hunting items? I have used those hercules hooks which leave very little holes but I guess thats still a hole! Gee that stinks!lol Have a great Sunday - Sincerely, Jeannette

Lilly I've never used them either and always wondered if they could actually hold any weight kwim? Glad to hear they do work. I was wondering if they would let you put in a picture rail? Like in victorian houses? That way you wouldn't mar the walls. It's just too cruel not to let you put up pictures! Vanna

Hi Lilly,
You asked about Dave Ramsey. We are getting ready to take the full 13 week course. We have already taken the 3 week introduction that our church offered and ordered the kit. YES, I recommend it highly. You can also check out his website on www.totalmoneymakeover.com.

Hugs,
LeAnn:)

Hi Lilly:
I don't know if those things work or not, but I hope so. Boy, it sounds like you have a strict landlord. Let us know how it works out.
