What should i use to fasten these items onto a wall?


I am doing an art project on my wall.
would super glue keep a fork on my wall?
i can screw it in because there is no hole on the fork.
there are different materials (some heavier). What can i use to keep it on and support weight as well?

Don't you know by now??? "Mighty Putty does it all!!!!"

glue small nails to the fork and push it into place, like a bigger thumb tack.

Super Glue would hold the fork. If you ever wanted to take ti off though then you would damage the wall. What is the wall made out of? I would suggest using anchors in the wall and there are several types that have different heads that can hold different objects. If you have the typical wall ( drywall over studs) Find a stud first for extra stability and drill the anchor into that. you can use hooks or just about anything. Go to a hardware store and tell the guys what your wall is and what you want to stick to it and they should be able to help you .

For the fork, they make a magnetic strip that has double face tape on the other side. If you have trouble finding one, they come in those dry erase message boards you can stick on the fridge.

If you have brick walls you will have to drill holes and put palstic anchors in the holes and then a metal on into hte palstic one.

you can take the bonding stuff from the 3M hangers that have the little tab that you pull and it comes right off the wall. You can find them at any local shopping store.

Velcro or magnets
