How can I safely hang heavy wall shelves on drywall without studs?

I’m trying to install some floating shelves to hold books and decorative items, but I’ve realized there are no studs where I want to place them. I know anchors are an option, but I’m not sure which type would be strong enough to support real weight long-term. Any recommendations for materials, techniques, or things to avoid? submitted by /u/BlitzBabe7 [link] [comments]
