odd question but I'd like to put hooks on my ceiling to hang things from them. Do you think anything would stay on them or would it just slide off?

I am not sure, but it might be worth a try. Good luck. I personally use cup hooks to hang things from my ceiling.

Assuming your ceiling is flat (parallel to the floor), I would definitely think that things would just fall off. The front end of the hook is not quite parallel with the back side that attaches to the wall - it has a taper, and if flipped 90 degrees to be on a ceiling, that would be a ramp down for objects to slide off.

I have not tried it. My guesstimate is that if the ceiling is flat and smooth it could work (light weight items only) worth a try with cautiongood luck

Ive never tried to hang them on my ceiling but here are my thoughts.... the hook is slightly curved upwards so you maybe ok......

I've used the smaller (not the smallest) hooks on my flat ceiling to hold up the middle of a strand of white lights that were strung from one wall to the other. It worked beautifully and held for three months (when we took it down). I would strictly follow the weight guidelines, even going under if possible, just to be sure. As long as what you're hanging has a loop or even a way to tie it on, it could work. Personally, I wouldn't have a problem with hanging things like paper lanterns, lightweight garlands (tinsel, silk flowers, small patio lights), or any very light decor. I wouldn't use them for potted plants (way too heavy) or anything that could harm someone or break if it fell. Good luck!

The Command Large Plastic Hook instructions include weight limitations. So I would think that they might possibly work on the ceiling assuming you adhere to those limitations. Good luck!

You can add if you have them; they come out easily (and go back in easily too :-)). It depends on what you are going to hang and how much space is going to take.

Okay J - Thank you so much! I am a visual learner and I had no idea how those metal things attach/clip, whatever and if it is hanging from the ceiling already, I guess it's not for support, but just to: Raise The Curtain if you will. Got it. Thanks

I would suggest using hooks for if its on the shower head it might slip off..

You have to install a small hook in the ceiling. I myself purchased a really nice white one. I suggest putting in a mount first so the hook can hold better.

Definitely NOT NOT NOT. That is for a picture. I usually use something like OOK 50330 Jumbo Swag Hook with Hardware, White or a swivel hook. And try to put it in a beam by screwing it directly in. Easy that way. Just put a tiny dent in the ceiling to get the screw started. and tighten it. When it gets hard to tighten, use a screw driver and lever it in between the screw and turn it around and around until it is all the way in. Got to be a beam or piece of wood in your ceiling. Find one with a string and a magnet or a stud finder.

No, there were no hooks. But that was not an issue with me. I mounted my screen on a beam running across the ceiling. With the round hangers on the screen, you can use screws, nails, hooks, etc. that are secure to hang the screen. I used hooks because I had them and because they seemed to help when the screen isused by others who are not so inclined to be careful.

I have had no problem having enough room on the hook for the hangar to slip on it. Some real thick plastic hangars don't work the best but still works. These metal wonder hangars are very strong. I've been able to hang all my jeans or other heavy clothing with no problems. I'd had the plastic wonder hangers and they were crappy. They didn't take hardly any weight without bending, braking and falling right on the floor. Hope this helps!

hanging them depends on the ceiling you have. mine is wood paneling so I used the hooks designed for hanging flower pots.

Just put them on my wall last week. Made for the wall, but a ceiling is doable since there is a post they slide on and are fairly tight. They can pivot but not a wide range of movement because they will touch the wall.... ceiling in your case.

The hook doesnt come off, you could mount it to a wall but youd have to get creative. Probably not worth it.

Not sure. It has adhesive on the back, but not sure it would hold from the ceiling. Sorry I can be more help.

You can hang a hammock from the ceiling. I believe it would work great. It holds two of my kids on a round swing and they are big

We stuck clear push pins into the ceiling and then used clear string to hang them. If you look really close, you can see the push pins, but they aren't clearly visible. Hope that helps!

I agree with David A. Senechal. Your best bet is to use drywall tape, assuming your ceiling is of drywall construction.

I, too, would think so, but I might get the canvas ones instead. The canvas creates a friction that keeps things from slipping off the hanger.

I see no reason these won't stick on a ceiling as long as the surface is smooth. But forget about ever removing them gracefully.
