I use the strong strudy roof nails. I pick out the longer ones and hammer them in. Then I use liquid nails to make sure it is reinforce. I give the liquid nails time to dry a least two hours depending on the weather. Then hang your curtains or drapes. I have plaster walls in my home. I use the strong strudy roof nails.

Drill a hole through the wall to fit the size of molly bolt be sure not to get the hole too big or you may have difficulty turning the bolt without having the connector turn. If the only drill is too small, use a small screwdriver, knife, or other object to ream out the hole until the fastener will slide in snugly. Push it in and turn the bolt clockwise until it feels tight. Now the fastener has expanded and should stay tight. Remove the bolt and attach the object screwing the bolt in tight. Do not over tighten or you may pull the fastener loose. Remember plaster is soft. A toggle bolt can be used similar to a molly bolt but with less care taken when installing. Select a bolt long enough to include the object plus the wall plus the length of the toggle then folded up. Drill a hole through the wall. If you do not have a drill: Drive a nail through the wall. Wiggle it until it comes loose and you can pull it out. Put a small screwdriver, knife, or piece of metal into the hole and carefully enlarge until the toggle will slide through. Assemble the object on the bolt and push the toggle into the hole until you can feel it spring open. (Now you cannot remove the bolt without losing the toggle in the wall). Tighten by turning clockwise. A toggle bolt should be used where the object will be drawn up tight to the wall because the hole must large enough to receive the toggle. The object should be large enough to cover the large hole that is necessary.<br><b>References : </b><br> Heavy Objects

Depending on the size or your picture or anything else. It works for me very good. If is something a little heavy, then use a big-fat (not long) screw. I have use this for years, and they doesn't fall. Give it a try.<br><b>References : </b><br> If you can not buy those special hook ups with 4 tiny nails for those walls, just use screws.
