A: To put yourself together refers to making yourself look nice, like nice clothes and maybe doing your hair and make up. Pulling yourself together is more about your emotions/situation.

Or if you are in a really bad mood because you had a really bad day you might tell yourself to "pull it together" because you know it will get better if you try.

A: Check the question to view the answer

A: Using the verb "to nail" would emphasize the action enough, as most people would just say, "Let's put the mirror on the wall together. Let's put the shelf on the wall."

So, to emphasize the action of nailing, you can say:

"Let's use nails to hang the mirror on the wall together. Let's nail the shelf to the wall."

The reason I say "Let's use nails to hang" is because the verb "to nail" suggests that you're "putting nails through the object itself. If you said, "Let's nail the mirror to the wall." it would confuse people.
