I have plaster and lathe walls in my 1920's home and I am having a horrible time trying to hang anything. Either the nail breaks or a huge chunk of the plaster comes off. Does anybody have any ideas other than picture hangers (don't work) or adhesive products?

Home Depot has special anchors just for picture hanging. I have plaster walls also and they work perfect. They kinda screw into the wall like magic. Ask a salesperson.

If you could locate the studs you could use a screw to anchor heavy stuff.
Or you could use molys for hollow walls, or toggle bolts, they work well with plaster and lath.

can you use small plastic ancors and drill a small hole in the wall ?
