How do I hang mirrors with no studs??

I'm renovating my bathroom and there are no studs where the hanging rope mirrors (approx. 8lbs each) need to be centered. The wall is drywall covered with laminate flooring. What do I use?

    Hi Donna they make some pretty serious sheetrock anchors just for that job. Make sure you get them plenty big. They will tell you on their box the max weight they can hold.

    You can also use a French cleat with plastic anchors for sheetrock. Amazon has lots of French cleats, you can also make them from wood cutting in half using a 45 degree angle. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zP6mP_bApGY

    Try Gorilla hooks. They hold heavy objects and easily go through the drywall. You can find them online if you cannot find them locally.
