Mine are nearer the glass Aysa. As you say, they make such lovely relaxing and pretty rainbow sparkles around the room.

Mine are on the little white stick-on hooks on the window frame itself, then they hang down over the glass.

I put just a tiny spot of super-glue on the back of the hook though Aysa, because I found after a while they fell down otherwise, and if your suncatchers are glass, they might smash.

Re: Suncatchers

I hope they'll do the trick

We use them for hanging xmas decorations. It's good because you can remove them easily, without leaving a mark, yet they do the job whilst they're there

On the inner branches where they don't look conspicuous, we hung ordinary cd's. The colours the prism's emit as the sunlight catches them is breathtakingly beautiful. Blues, Reds, Pinks, Greens, Orange. I could look at them all day.

Can't wait to hang them out again this summer.

Re: Suncatchers

Sun catchers would do my head in. My husband would go crazy if I put anything like that up!

Re: Suncatchers

Is there a radiator below the window?
If so the sticky pads may not be of any use, the heat dries the adhesive and they become useless very quickly.

Yes B&Pooh sell them or Office World type outlets.
