    Question How do you attatch the timber letters to the bedroom wall?

    Today I bought the letters for DS's name to go on his bedroom wall. I will paint them & put them on his wall.... but how do you attatch them to the wall?

    They're just plain timber letters, there's no hanger spot on the back etc

    Someone out there must be able to tell me how to do this, it's so frustrating having it here but not knowing how to do it!

    TIA

    I would go down to bunnings and buy some tiny picture hangers to put on the back of the letters - then put a nail in the wall (or some of those 3M hooks).

    I don't have mine yet for the kids, but friends have just used blue tack (sp?) or double sided tape (which would probably damage paint but would be Ok if they're going to be there for ages and if you aren't renting).

    I used a glue gun for ours. The only thing with this is I'm not sure how easy they are to remove. So if you're renting, than I probably wouldn't advise it.

    It depends on where they are going too - if they are above the cot you will want something REALLY secure.

    I did DS's name with the wooden letters too but they are stuck on his bedroom door and I just used blu-tak...they haven't fallen off yet!
