Advice need please

[byron_wells]

I really wish I could delete my first post lol

I am in need of some advice please.. Bearing in mind I am not a DIY expert at all.. I can put furniture together but when it comes to drilling, anything to do with house builds I am clueless.. I brought a Canvas picture that from the specs says it is only 3kg in weight (see second image) I would like to put that somewhere in the kitchen. However the whole of the kitchen is tiled (see picture 1)

I have attempted to use command strips large that can take 7.2kg but they didn't really stick and kept sliding down the wall. I know some people said to hang it from the wall, but for me that is a bit to complicated to. I don't really want to attempt to drill holes into the tiles just in case they break (we live in a rented property)

I have come across some suction cups ideas but they are getting mixed reviews so. Can someone point me in the right direction please??

You can buy a special drill bit for tiles. That is the route i would take.

They can't drill a hole it's rented. But why are you resisting the suction hooks idea? eg https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B09J8G7...&s=kitchen&sp_csd=d2lkZ2V0TmFtZT1zcF9kZXRhaWw you can even use two to spread the load. There are suction hooks designed to hang wet suits on, they weigh a helluva lot more than a canvas, have a google.

Was asking to make sure that suction hook work, etc.. Because have seen a mixed bag of reviews.. And do not want the picture to come crashing down Have you used them yourself?

This holds 10kg: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Wetsuit-Suction-Hook-hook-Neoprene/dp/B07C5539TW/ref=sr_1_5?crid=2L0OR55VU21KE&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.xcTirMzHEH-LYpuUNBqpuskeT57Iob1RKUuG4rFA-xrxns4VLjDPyu3qV3F3hQKZ6Ky9Ev5I9bVMCCFv1PgPUo4PEz00Gob45lNzXKeKd1QzaiTFvpy4LSDwVBJwEF2F2gzNJTDrwH8A-m-IU9nEf4SNvIEsP8Vm6lcrs1P7HB61Gp2rYLidE-Dfw5qqUDQjujVXb_-OWUzrBfGFE4_8EB4Tb_o1CmwcZgf_MQATik78d-UOtU2GvBvEROVN9UzkCbL-QxjZhik2OEIEcYtnm9f2JkkvuZGTH6HAF_FnAvY.VDIg3nTDavJsI2LRO8GMTSiQ3hfmhO5Jtf2s59Yqc6w&dib_tag=se&keywords=wetsuit+suction+hook&qid=1717426962&sprefix=wetsuit+suctiuo+hook,aps,86&sr=8-5 why would it fail? You can get suction hooks to carry 30kg lumps of glass, sure they're bigger but the principle's the same, that picture must weigh hardly anything.

If it's a typical wooden frame with a canvas stretched over it and the walls flat I'd silicone it in place.

Decent bead around the wooden frame, press to the wall, prop in place with a couple of pieces of wood and tape to hold flat until the silicone goes off.

Picture will be removable with a scraper if required and the excess silicone then removed.
