How to make or hang up curtain rod with minimal wall damage?

Question

have an apartment and cant make holes in walls. no screws allowed just tacks and tiny nails. any suggestions on how to hang up curtains?

Answer 1

How about hanging them from the ceiling? Using s***w eyes and clip rings. If you use a handful of those you don't even need a curtain rod, just fasten the clips to the curtains. Good luck.

Answer 2

I would use nails anyway and just patch them when i left. but if you don't want to risk it get some picture hooks and run a small wire between them. make sure the hooks are stout because you want the wire fairly tight so it won't sag in the middle.

Answer 3

get sheer curtain and use Velcro

Answer 4

nail it anyway, and patch it when you leave. my fiance' used toothpaste to fill our holes and the apt management didn't say anything at all! make sure you use white if you have white walls, etc.
