The sofa table, coffee table, and TV cabinet were all built by Chris about 9 years ago when we had no furniture.

If we have any hanging hardware around this house anywhere, I don’t know where it is right now, so this is just as good.Maybe better because it’s quick and pretty much free.

Plus a. screwdriver.and a. staple gun.are pretty much always within reach around here..

So he just stapled into the frame of the mirror, with the flat head screwdriver under the staple gun, creating a little gap between the frame and the top of the staple!.He did that on both side of the frame and then was able to use those to anchor a hanging wire!
