So simple a child could do it...
duh:
since I went out and got the pretty coffee mugs I also bought the hooks to hang them on. Now for the part a child could do. I can't get the hooks to penetrate the wood on the bottom of the shelf. I hate hooks I can never get them to go in. What is the trick please? I'm hoping there is a trick otherwise I'm going to qualify as the weakest woman in the world.
Bonnie:
Try boring a lead hole with a small drill bit, works everytime.
bayou girl:
and if you don't have a drill bit, drive a finishing nail in a little bit, then wiggle it out with your fingers. that makes a decent lead hole also.
Tina:
Both of those work. Then use something like a screwdriver wedged into the hook to finish twisting it in. That is the place where my hands give out in strength. Those last few twists are a killer.
duh:
I'm going to try your suggestions. I bet they will work.
