Yeah this is just for knick knacks! Heaviest thing might be a couple of rocks that weigh... At most a couple of rocks less than 100 grams each/3.5 ounces. There's some other things that are lighter than that too.

Oh and a deer antler, forgot about that. That weighs 11.5 ounces/325 grams. So maybe 10/4.5 kilos pounds tops?

Yeah, I would use finishing nails and two of those little hanger things. then you can use finishing nails on the wall also. I wouldn't be overly worried personally. I hate drilling into dry wall.... I also have plaster walls in my ancient house so less is always better to me.
