How can i hang a mirror in my dorm room?

Question

I'm pretty sure that my RA would get pretty ticked if i came in with my tool set and started drilling holes in the wall:)

do you have any ideas about how i can get a mirror in my room? full length would be the best, because i will be sharing a community bathroom:)

thank you!

Answer 1

The little hooks that stick to the wall, but those might not hold enough weight. You might try a standing mirror. If space is an issue, get something a little higher, that you can put a basket under. Check with your RA and see the exact policy, too

Answer 2

Try this: make a frame with slot's cut into the inside to allow the mirror to fit snugged.Then you can lean it pretty much anywhere! Good luck!

Answer 3

The 2 sided tape idea might work, but the weight is now being supported by paint. Furthermore, when you remove mirror in the future, that tape will surely(hopefully) take the paint off. Im sure ur super would rather fix a few holes with spakle, then have to repaint the entire wall. Most mirrors have wires or places to hook, if it doesnt ,maybe the 2 sided tape might be good to attach some. Find the stud, or use some type of molly bolt to support your mirror.

Answer 4

You could just place one on a chair, or get a freestanding mirror

Answer 5

I go to VT and I had a full length mirror in my dorm as well. If you go to walmart you should be able to find some heavy duty double sided foam tape. You should be able to find it in the school/office supply section.  If you put a square on each corner as well as one in the middle, it should be enough, if not, you could always add more!

Answer 6

Mirror tape. They sell it at wal- mart :)
