You possibly can’t actually see or discover the hook no less than on mine since they’re white and since it will get lined by the garland (you possibly can fluff the branches up and round it if it exhibits somewhat bit)

Oftentimes garland can have loops on one or either side, so what I do is tie a chunk of twine or heavy responsibility string round that so I can then tie the string onto the hook.

2) my hood has a ledge that I can connect the hook too which helps maintain the load and

3) I’m cautious to make use of the correct of hook for the job and in following the producer directions for the hooks to make sure it’s firmly hooked up (which implies cleansing the floor first to verify there’s no oil!).

Up on the mantel away from the warmth or on the aspect can be greatest.
