Choose a well ventilated place with enough room to allow all around free movement. The depth dimension is the minimum diameter dimension to revolve around the hanging point. Plan enough space around the hanging point so the Mobile can move freely. The hanging kit I provide has two types of hooks, one will be suited to hang from plasterboard ceiling and the other will be for anchoring in wood. There is plenty of line provided for the purpose.

Although Mobiles are not very heavy the Mobile’s ceiling anchor should sustain from 20 to 50 pounds weight. Use heavy gauge single strand or thin  braided fishing line.

The provided swivel hook will help alleviate line stress.

Please check the line regularly and change at any sign of weakness.

Here is how I proceed.

Tie the bottom “S” hook to the end of the line. Use a good strong knot (do not cut the line yet, you will need the full length to hold the Mobile up in place to decide the height).

Suspend the Mobile on the “S” hook. Holding it at arm's length find the best place and height and mark the spot to place the hook.

Install ceiling hook.

Once the hook is in place, place the line over it and pull the Mobile up and find the right height.

Cut the length of line to the desired length and tie the swivel hook (at the ceiling end of the line) again, using a good strong knot.

Also, after cutting the provided fishing line it is a good idea to singe both ends with a match or a lighter to prevent fraying.

Hang the Mobile.

Enjoy!
