Hello Rabastos; Please go to Home Depot, Wal-Mart. Etc. Please invest in Command products.
They will not harm your walls, and you can pretty much hang anything!!!
I hope that this helps you!!! Take Care!
If your walls are sheet rock, you can use command strips. I usually use straight pins (dressmakers pins). Hold it with a pliers fairly close to the point and push it in at a downward angle. Regrip and push in further until you get it as far as needed for what you are hanging. I hang even fairly heavy things like this. And if you want to remove it there's hardly any hole.

This is great, thanks so much. I will try some of these!
Try Gorilla hooks. They work great and the pack comes with different hooks for different weights.
Buy a stud finder from Walmart or hardware store it's a cheap gadget to find studs in the wall to hang pictures etc... The support beams are for supporting the walls or if your were taking a wall down, as we did this what the contractor explained.
You will need to use wall anchors to secure and stabilize anything you hand along with weighted hangars.
If your house didn't have support beams it would fall down. Get a stud finder, or try measuring over 16" from corner. Most studs in newer homes are 16" on center. Some older homes they can be 23". But code now is 16"
Other ways to hang things are wall anchors, https://www.google.com/search?client=opera&q=types+of+wall+anchors&sourceid=opera&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8 You can even buy Command hooks that just stick to wall board.
or french cleat for really heavy stuff, but must be anchored into a stud.... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/French_cleat
