How can you drill a hole in glass?

Tape a small scrap of dense cardboard to the glass. Begin at very low rpm to create a dimple in the glass, then remove the cardboard and continue at about 400 rpm. Drilling a hole in a pane of glass or a mirror is simple. The key is to use a carbide bit made especially for glass and tile (see photos).

Drill pilot holes in the wall or ceiling for the hooks you will use to hang the window. Heavy eye hooks are a good choice, but you can potentially use bent or roll hooks or even cup hooks. Use at least one hook for every hook on the window to distribute the weight amongst several studs.

Plastic Clips
Plastic mirror clips have a snap on cover that hides the screw to remove them. The cover just snaps on to the clip and can be removed by sliding your flat tip screwdriver under the edge of the cover and prying out. Use your variable speed drill to remove the screws holding the mirror clips to the wall.

Can you Mod Podge pictures to glass?

You can Mod Podge a photo directly to glass, but can you photo transfer to glass? The answer is no – not directly. You'll need to use the “decal method.” In the decal method, you're going to print out photos on printer paper (not photo paper) and then paint them with Mod Podge photo transfer medium.

How do you transfer words to glass?

The Mod Podge Photo Transfer basically turns your picture into a decal that can then be stuck to glass or any smooth surface. You brush the medium onto your photo, the photo transfers to the medium as it dries (into a very thin plastic-like sheet), and you peel the paper away.

Do Command Strips work on textured walls?

Command strips can only be applied to smooth surfaces. Avoid adhering them to brick walls, textured wallpaper, concrete or timber. Strips work best on clean, smooth surfaces, so wipe the wall with isopropyl rubbing alcohol (methylated spirits) first. This will ensure your strip bonds properly with the wall.

First, warm up the adhesive with a hairdryer. 30 seconds or so seems to be about right. Next, use dental floss or fishing line to gently cut through the adhesive strip. Rub off any remaining adhesive residue, and the Command Hook is ready to reuse!

How heavy can you hang on drywall?

This can be 5 to 10 pounds, but keep in mind that the drywall is an extremely brittle material and, it is not strong enough to hold the weight for a longer period of time. If you don't have any anchors to use or other hardware to use, then you'll want to make sure you find a stud to drill your screws into.

How much weight can a wall anchor hold?

Toggles, anchors or molly bolts are surprisingly strong. A 1/8 toggle can hold 30 pounds on 1/2-inch drywall and a 3/8-inch toggle can handle a hefty 50 pounds or more safely. When applying any kind of drywall anchor, you should understand how they work and which screw anchor may work best to put into a hollow wall.
