Pardon the stupid question, but I have 3m command hooks. I need to create the opposite. I have a tiny dry erase board I want to hold up with said hooks and have it be removable. I need to create holes/holder/mounting points to adhere to the dry erase board. What are those called?

I tried searching "command hooks" but it gives me the hooks themselves. How do I search for the opposite? What are they even called?

I assume 3M makes those inserts for their hooks because it’s difficult to mass-produce cheap hollow objects with a firm flat back.

We don’t have that problem.

I have stuck all manner of things to the wall with command strips — power strips, 3D-printed hooks, boxes.. whatever has a flat back works fine.
