    Command hooks are the way to go. They have different weight bearing hooks so you can hang just about anything. Then when you need they come off easily and leave no mark.

    Hello Foffdogg84,


    Have you tried the command products?? They have great product that can hold items up to 50 pounds or so without ruining your walls. Hope this helps! :)

    Command hooks aren't a good option for heavy art. Depending on the year your home was built you may have a paneling type surface rather than drywall. We live in a mobile/manufactured home and have found for heavy items you really need to find a stud and use a good picture hanger.

    Our mobile home was manufactured in '97. I don't know much about manufactured homes, however, I do believe it has paneling. Would it best to replace the paneling with drywall to ensure that the command hooks would hold?

    Command hooks only hold until the weather gets hot. We are long time RVs from Florida. Please done use command hooks on anything breakable or that could fall on someone.

    Depends how heavy the items are. What amount of weight are you talking about?

    Hello Fog: Unless the walls are very sturdy, I'd avoid heavy objects. You may be able to use a couple or three command hooks to balance out the weight. But, I wouldn't use just one.
