any reason that I could not use this to dress up a bare hanging ceiling bilb?

youd have to do some macgyvering to get that to work. i assume the bulbs upside down. i supose u could if it hangs on a chord but it would look kind of ghetto. plus youd have to make sure the bulb doesnt touch the shade. good luck with that one.

Good morning, Debra. You may use other hardware than a nail to hang the item. Please check with your local hardware store for further information. Thank you, Sarah | HearthSong Customer Service

I rebuilt a hanging lamp with this setup. It should be fine. It's got one of those roller switches on it if you're ok with those.

I'm using it as recessed lighting behind cove molding in my ceiling, so don't know why you couldn't!

i would just use it with the ceiling socket....you may be able to use it with no shade but it would have to be very stable. you can't use it with anything that would have a tendency to be moved because it is very sensitive and would likely break if used improperly.

You could, but you will have to let hanger be a little loose in the base, which shouldn't be a problem. Hope that helps.

Never tried it, but don't know why you couldn't. We hung ours with the globes down and it is really a nice looking fixture.

I would not just hang it with nails, I would use some clips, securely fastened, it is not light weight.

yes I suppose you could if you were to screw a hook like device into the ceiling and use the ring out of the light to suspend it, therefore eliminating the chain all together. There would still most likely be about 2 or 3 inches space to the ceiling.

I do not see why not, it's not equipped to hung however I'm sure it's possible

I do not see any easy way to hang this. But I doubt you would really want to. The chemical repellant seems to be dispersed via heat rising from the candle. If you hang it, it probably won't be effective below the height you hang it.

You can use hangers on this but the bars are very close together and this would limit the hanging space on those bars. It is a very useful thing for what it is, but hangers on it would create a bit of a problem. I can see it being used that way however and not used to hang clothes on the bars themselves.

I never hung mine yet. I need another alternative because my tree isn't string enough.

I don't think it would work well if you didn't use screws. I can't really see the hanging strips really holding it in good enough.

I bought mine just about the same time as Gregory R, and got only two 2' flimsy chains with S-hooks on each end. No possibility of hanging as the picture shows unless only 1 foot from the ceiling. There are three attachment holes on each end of the top of the fixture, two obviously intended for hanging as shown, and the other for hanging with only a single chain.

Agree with below responses. It is difficult to work with. It does NOT tie like string as it advertises. I would use wire or other line meant to hold 100 lbs.

If you try to hang it on the ceiling... there are some things to consider. 1, this is a very thin paper and should have air flow through both top and bottom holes. 2, you probably want to use low watt lamp to avoid overheating and possible fire. 3, you will have to creatively use some wire (maybe coat hanger) to attach it. If you are careful, I think your idea would work. I may even try this myself.
