Suction cup wreath hanger wont stay put

I hang a wreath on one of my windows. LAst year I bought a suction cup wreath hanger. Everytime I put it up, within a half hour it falls down. I even put tape on it. Any suggestions? Not sure what to do.

I bought 4 from big lots and they have stayed put for 2 weeks no problem.

The package said to hang it only when the weathers 40 degrees and up. HTH

We are using the command hooks by 3M on our windows to hang wreaths, and so far so good, they have been hanging for a week+ and no problems!

Re: Suction cup wreath hanger wont stay put

It depends on the size/weight of the wreaths. I put one fake wreath up with two suction cups that say they hold up to 8 pounds each. So far, the three wreaths have held on my outside upstairs windows. Last year, we used real, decorated wreaths that were pretty heavy and no matter how many suction cups I used they kept falling - I had to use wire and loop it through the top of the window. Some of my neighbors use a nail on top of the window but, I didn't want to do that. So, I would estimate the weight of the wreath and maybe try two suction cups. If that doesn't work you might need to use something else. HTH!

Re: Suction cup wreath hanger wont stay put

If the wreath is too heavy, that is why.
You may need a large hook/suction cup
