/diy/ - Do It Yourself

it's often specified in your lease so I'd double-check that. My last apartment's lease specified the exact dollar amount they would charge me per hole in the wall, unless the holes were spackled over before I moved out, in which case there would be no charge.

Anyway your best shot would be taking the stickers from picrel and using the stickers to glue your shelf to the wall. However I'm skeptical that the stickers can hold 6 pounds, and even if it holds, you probably wouldn't be able to put much (if any) weight on the shelf, which makes it kinda pointless.

Just get some drywall anchors and drill some holes and do it all properly OP. If you make it look good, you can move out with the shelf still nailed to the wall and the landlord probably won't charge you because it's an improvement. In my last rental house I planted a tree in the backyard and installed a mounting for a return air filter to the HVAC system. Landlord didn't charge me for either because they were obvious improvements to the property.
