Putting up a mirror in a tiled bathroom...

Firstly, I apologise if this is a stupid question. I'm completely DIY-phobic and this is my first time venturing onto this board :o

I'm trying to find a way to put up a mirror in my bathroom. The bathroom is completely tiled, ceiling to floor, and because the property is rented I'd like to avoid drilling or anything permanent. I bought a pack of stick-on mirror tiles from IKEA which were great for about 3 weeks, but I came home lastnight to find them all smashed on the floor. The condensation from showering etc had obviously made them come un-stuck, despite always doing what i can to reduce/remove the condensation.

So, can anyone reccommend a product or way to fix a mirror or mirror tiles to my tiled bathroom wall without drilling or leaving a permanent mark? Preferrably something that won't be affected by condensation. Thanks in advance :)

    You'll need something like a set of 3M heavy duty sticky pads.

    Clean the tiles with a windowlene type product then stick your mirror up, preferably when the bathroom hasn't been used for a day or so when there's no condensation.

    screw a hook into the ceiling/joist and hang the mirror on a wire.
    easy hole to fill, when you leave.
    Get some gorm.
