I want to install brackets in drywall to support drapery rods. No studs are located in the right places, so I'm using the small plastic wall anchors supplied with the drapery hardware. I watched YouTube videos, which show wall anchors being easily slipped into previously drilled pilot holes.
The instructions with the drapery hardware, say to use a 3/16 drill bit to drill a pilot hole for the anchors, so that is what I did. However, the hole made by the 3/16 is too small to insert the anchor. Before drilling a larger hole, I wanted to ask if there's some other way I should go about this?
Thanks,
Amethyst
