New Product Alert! I am thrilled to be introducing Prism Suncatchers into the lineup here at My Sparkling Emporium. As you may already know, I hand assemble them all here in Kitchener- and I also curate every single item that goes into them! Anyways! I have some tips & tricks here for hanging them, and a little bit of safety info if you plan to incorporate one in a space with a baby/young child.

Hanging Tips:
- Choose a space that has direct sunlight.
- Ceiling Hooks: These are my FAVE choice. If you aren't familiar with how these work, they come in a variety of styles, and screw into your ceiling. This keeps your suncatcher out of the way of windows opening, curtains moving etc.

- S-hooks: These are great for hanging off of a curtain rod. You can stack them if you need extra length, and they come in a ton of finishes.

- Suction cups: Some like to stick them directly to a window using a suction cup with a hook. I am not opposed to this but I would avoid a window that is opened and closed frequently. Your Prism Suncatcher has glass prisms- and these can break with repeated rough contact. Additionally, glass rubbing against glass...it doesn't always go well! Please be sure to check the suction frequently.

Please hang your Prism Suncatcher out of the reach of little hands. Kids & babies LOVE items like these, and will absolutely be tempted to pull on them. They aren't toys, so they will pull apart- but more importantly, the small pieces could be a choking hazard. If your Prism Suncatcher is going to live in a kids room, please use a ceiling hook. Kids & babies will reach, so keeping your Prism Suncatcher out of their reach space is wise. While it may be tempting to use as a mobile, hanging your Prism Suncatcher overtop a crib/bed isn't safe.
Leave your fave option to hang your new Prism Suncatcher below! I love the combo of a ceiling hook, and some s hooks.
