A pack of adhesive hooks is one of the handiest items to have around the home. They're great for organising and decorating without nails and screws, and they stick to a variety of surfaces including painted drywall, wood, glass and tiles.
But a common question is how to remove adhesive hooks without damaging paint or tiles. Well, it's actually much easier than you'd think - read on for advice.
