How did you hang this? I'm trying to hang it on a concrete wall, but the hanging hole is too small for any sturdy screws I can find.

A small plastic anchor (Insert) can be put into a hole. The anchor takes a small screw. They are available in the hardware department or home improvement store.

I had to wrap wire around the bases of two of the "tentacle" type sun rays that was hidden behind the thicker part of the sun rays and then made a little loop with the wire to hang from the screw in the wall. I made it so you really can't see the wire.

I used a concrete fastener (screw), just make sure you get the right size for the hanging hole. You can get it from any hardware store.

We also hung it on a cement wall but since he is sleeping and I did not watch can I just send you the answer from here? It is very simple...Where do you live - if you are in Florida it gets hot here and now is the rainy season...so we hung it on a north facing wall...there is no direct sun and that is a very cool wall.He drilled a small hole into the concrete and put a shield into the hole then a nail into the shield...on the bottom he did the same thing and then he fastened the wall hanging to that so that the wind would not bang the sculpture against the wall. Hope this helps... Oh BTW the shield is the same as an "anchor" We also hung it on a cement wall but since he is sleeping and I did not watch can I just send you the answer from here?

I used a 3/16 concrete drill bit to make the hole in the concrete before I realized that the hanging hole on the décor was too large (not small) to fit. I then used picture hanging wire to go from the décor hanger to the concrete nail. I hope it will hold during hurricane season. Looks lovely.

My husband said for concrete, you should drill a hole first and use an insert that the screw actually screws into. We hung ours on the wall and we also had to search for a sturdy screw with a small enough head to fit. I must say it was worth the trouble, we have gotten a lot of compliments on our wall art. Good luck.

I used a couple of sheetrock wall anchors. Use the base to mark your holes, drill a small hole in the wall, insert the anchor and screw the base to the wall. Piece of cake!

For that you'd want a lead anchor with a screw, and washers to secure it. You'd measure where the screws go. Then drill holes in the cement or brick. Place the wall mount up on the wall. Then screw in the lead anchors with the washers and it should hold up fine. I would think you'd want 2" lead anchors just because that'd hold the weight a little better. And if you talk to someone at Lowe's, home depot, or Ace, etc. They should know what you're looking for and be able to help you out. And get a friend to help you mount it. So one person can hold the wall mount while the other screws in the lead anchors.

I've had to rehang mine after moving and bought new screws. It comes with anchors and screws. Use Red Head #12 x 1-7/16 because they are the right size and can go in sheet rock or concrete walls. If you are going into a stud, don't use the anchor.

The hook doesn't come off... if you're creative you could mount a small piece of wood to hang it off the wall.

just put a small screw in the wall, a normal one or drywall screw and hang it.

Good morning, Debra. You may use other hardware than a nail to hang the item. Please check with your local hardware store for further information. Thank you, Sarah | HearthSong Customer Service

Mine did not come with anything to hang it with. Had to go to Lowes and get a command hook.

There are small holes (like fo a finishing nail). I would put it on a small board and then hang that.

i would suggest get appropriate size concrete anchor screw if you want to mount on concrete floors.take the bottom plate off and take it to hard ware store to match it with the largest size anchor bolts you can get.

My husband used a screwdriver and hammer to put it together. To hang it on the wall (it's heavy) you will need screws or togglebolts. If you can hit the studs in the wall, screws will work, if not something heavier will have to be used. Home Depot or Lowes can help you with that.

Dear Jill, you cannot hang it on the wall, per se., but you can screw it to the wall using red rawl plugs ( 6mm.) or mount it on a wooden base /plaque and then hang the base on a wall nail locating on a hole drilled into the back of the wooden base. Kind regards Andy

Unfortunately I don't know what anchors would be required for a concrete board wall. Sorry I couldn't help

We had a "handy-woman" friend hang ours and she used two tiny wood screws in the back of the upper frame, then ran picture hanging wire from one to the other. Not sure exactly what type of screw went into the wall, I think maybe one with a plastic anchor over it.

Great idea! They don't weigh very much... I just used a hook that twisted into the drywall... I think it said it was good for hanging things up to 10lbs so there was no issue whatsoever.
