How to hang on a steel door
After posting a pic of my Snowflake hanging on my metal front door, I received a question on how I hung it. In case anyone else would like to know, or has a better way to share, I'm telling my way here.
I put triangles in the top corners of the hanging. The snowflake is one that I could use any corner because it really doesn't have a 'top' so I put triangles in each corner.
My husband cut a small board as wide as the hanging ALMOST. It's a tiny bit shorter so that it fits snugly, but small enough to slide up.
I bought some magnets at the store Menards? Lowes? Home Depot? They're about 1 1/4 inch round
I also bought some 3M Command hangers with metal hooks, and with the sticky tab that you need to attach, and stuck one to each of 2 magnets.
When I make the hangings I make them a size that fits the boards so I just change them and don't have to cut new ones.
Then I hung both magnets on the door and the hooks hold the small board
Since there are 2 hooks it's easy to center it so it hangs straight
To the person that sent me a private message with the question - I can't figure out how to reply privately to a message I already read so I am hoping you see this. I can't even remember your name!! (sorry)
