  1. Purchase the appropriate non-marking removable adhesive product for the art you want to hang. If you are hanging small items, smaller adhesives will work well. For large items, or non-framed items such as masks or hanging sculptures, select a hook that will hold the weight of the piece. The packaging of each product lists the amount of weight it can hold.

  2. Clean the mirrored surface with rubbing alcohol or a glass cleaner to remove any oils and dirt.

  3. Remove the adhesive backing from the hanger and press the hanger onto the mirrored surface for 30 seconds. Allow it to set for 1 hour before hanging artwork on it.

  4. Remove the front side of the adhesive and press the piece of artwork firmly against it for 30 seconds. Your artwork will stay in place until you decide to remove it. To remove the adhesive, take down the artwork first and then pull on the bottom of the hanger until the entire piece of adhesive peels away from the wall.

Warnings

Do not use removable adhesive products on delicate or paper wallpaper.
