Default How in the heck do I hang things in a 1920's building?!?


" Hello there! I am a young female that is NOT anything close to a
handyman, my man is a computer geek (even LESS handy), and I need
help! I want to hang pictures as well as heavy curtains/rods and
surround speakers in my place but everytime I try I make a huge hole.
I have some anchors that the maitenence man gave to me, a decent drill
and an wide array of different screw/nails/etc. and a hammer. HOW IN
THE HECK DO I HANG THIS CRAP? Please-HELP ME!

Thanks!
Krissy



I got onto this thread a little late. If you still need help,

Am I correct that this is plaster over lathe construction?

You may not have the right anchors. With the right ones it is a piece of
cake. Even a geek can do it.
