I'm in Love...

....with the Command Center at my local Target store!

I tell ya, those Command hooks and picture hanging tools are amazing. They come in great handy living in an apartment because honestly, the less holes you can put in the walls the better as far as I'm concerend.

We've bought and used the hooks for several things around the apartment. I'm not a huge fan of how they look so they've come in handy in closets and behind doors. We've used them to hang our reusable grocery bags and other bags/purses that I wanted to get off the floor.
We've also used the picture hanging tools. Basically two pieces of velcro stuck together and stuck to the wall and the picture/whatever you are hanging. We've used them to hang a corkboard on the door (again you don't really want to put holes in the door to hang something) and to also hang other pictures on the walls.
Also, earlier this year we hung a set of hooks on the wall by screwing them into the wall. Of course we didn't hit studs and I use those hooks to hold heavy bookbags, purses, umbrellas and rain jackets so needless to say it starting to pull out of the wall. Command to the rescue!!!! All I need to do is go to the store and get them.

They're great little tools. The picture hanging set comes with 3 sets and each set can hold 3 lbs. That means that if you used 3 sets of them to hold something up it can hold up to 9 lbs. So those little pieces are strongs!

They've even got an entire website detailing their products and they've got coupons. You should check it out. We love them!
