| ..I've been working on my window. It will be hung above a set of stairs - so if it falls it will be falling about 8 feet (hopefully not on anyone). This is a good sized window about 2 1/2 feet by 4 feet with 6 panes of glass.
Should I use screw eyes and wire (then worry about covering any wire that shows) or use a couple of the hammer in sawtooth hangers?? Other ideas? TIA Will post a photo once it is all completed and hung! |

| Hi Lydia, For a decorative painted window I did, my bro found a stud in the wall and use and eye & hook screw and it's been pretty secure. Sal |

| I'd definitely use some sort of anchors. I found some great ones that actually hammer into the wall, then the eyes screw into them. |

| Hey, Lydia ... did you get it hung? I'd like to see what it looks like! |

| Hi Stoney! It's not done yet. Hopefully I'll get it finished and hung up in the next couple weeks. |
