Where to Hang a Suncatcher for the Best Glow

A suncatcher only shines when it catches the light. Here is how to place yours for the best glow and keep it looking beautiful.

Best places to hang it

• East or west windows. Direct morning or afternoon sun lights it up most.
• At eye level. Hang where the light will pass through and scatter into the room.
• Near a quiet spot. A reading chair or kitchen sink window makes it a daily joy.

Simple care

Dust gently with a soft cloth and avoid harsh cleaners so the suncatcher stays clear and bright.

Frequently asked questions

Does it need direct sun? Direct light gives the brightest effect, but it still adds color in soft light.
