My DH has this Hilti tool that he can drill into brick with. I'm sure you can rent one from Home Depot.

Other than that, not sure!! you can't really stick anything up there, you know?

Re: help me decorate my living room please

was just googling it and i found some ideas where people attached a wire on the top (attach it to the wall on the left & right of the brick wall) ... then they hang pictures using other wires and it looks pretty awesome ... i'm just not sure if it'd work for me since this wall is really really long

RE:help me decorate my living room please

Here are some ideas for decorating a brick wall without nails:

Use adhesive hooks. Hooks are a great way to hang things on a brick wall without nails. They come in different sizes and weights, so you can find ones that are strong enough to hold the decorations you want.

Use command bars. Command strips are another great option for hanging things on a brick wall without nails. They are easy to apply and remove and will not damage the wall.

Use slanted shelves. Sloping shelves are a great way to display decorations on a brick wall without nails. They come in different sizes and styles, so you can find one that suits your decor.

Use wall coverings. Covering walls with is a fun and easy way to decorate a brick wall. They come in a variety of designs and colors, so you can find ones that suit your personality and style.

Use mirrors. Mirrors are a great way to add light and dimension to a brick wall. They can also help bounce light from other parts of the room, making the space appear larger and brighter.

Use works of art. Artwork is a great way to add personality and style to a brick wall. You can hang framed art with adhesive hooks or tape, or lean it against the wall on a slanted shelf.
