I have been notified that one member tried to hang his centerpiece and the attached hanger came loose. PLEASE, check out the ability of your hanger to withstand the weight of your centerpiece before you hang it permanently!
The trophy shop that produced these centerpieces is not open on Mondays - I will contact them tomorrow to ascertain the correct adhesive to re - apply the hanger if yours is faulty.
I apologize in advance if your hanger is incorrectly applied.

My contact at the trophy shop told me they had a similar problem with another trophy yesterday. They have used Clear GE Corning Silicone for years, the hangers on both our trophies and the other one that failed were applied with the same tubes of adhesive.
He'll call me in the morning with a recommendation for a stronger adhesive, if your hanger comes off.
Once again, PLEASE check to make sure your centerpiece has the hanger securely fastened - I wouldn't hang it over something breakable.
I'll update this thread tomorrow, and am very sorry for the inconvenience.
I just got off the phone with JR at Coast to Coast Trophies. He's spent a couple days testing, and recommends Liquid Nails Clear Small Projects Adhesive if your hanger comes loose.
He also offered (for those of you that live in the Valley of the Sun) to come to your house, pick it up, fix it and return it at his cost.

Hopefully he will fix mine too!!!
Hung mine on wall 2 days ago.... Had a client come over last night to sign some papers and just as we sat down to get the paperwork out of the way, BOOMMMMMM CRASHHHHHHHH!!! Scared both of us to death!
I looked all over trying to figure out what had caused the extremely loud noise and finally saw my center piece rolling around on the floor.
What a surprise! I haven't had time to look at the Forum for a few days and didn't know you had already posted about this...
When Jim heard what had happened he says, "Oh honey... I forgot to warn you. They posted on the Forum about the problem already.

Sorry Glenda, I did the best I could to get the message out.
