Got a mirror that just flat with no hanging things on the back, how do I put it on the wall. Shall I just go to wilkos and look for some clips on will they not work?

I used sticky back pads on our 2.5 x 2.5ft mirror. It fell during the night, a week later, but luckily it didn't break. :eek:

I took all the old sticky pads off, replaced them with fresh pads, then applied no nails to mirror as well. The idea being, is the pads will hold the mirror to the walls, while the no nails sets.

Three years on, and the mirror is still on the wall. :cool:

I'm dreading taking it off, though. :eek::p

Fix a small batton to the wall at the base of the mirror...something that will go with the frame (if it does not have a frame use some beading and decorate to your own taste) as this will take most if not all of the vertical load, then you can use some very small clips at the top corners just to stop it falling forwards... :)
