Quick question about trying to get some nails in my wall to stick:
I'm a broke college student in a cheap rental house, and I just hammered a few nails into the wall, pointing up at about a 45 degree angle, basically as hooks, so I can hang something on them.
Thing is, they're just nails in dry-wall, so the moment I tapped one of them, it fell all the way into the wall. I pulled it out and put a little bit of glue against the hole, but I'm wondering if anyone could suggest any good ways to keep the nails firm where they are.
Would caulk work? I thought about that, but I'd rather get some more informed input. Any advice is appreciated!
