These plates are so cute. I bought 5 of them in different sized for my sons bathroom wall. He is two and when he saw them he said "WOW" and wanted to walk around with them.  I haven't hung them yet. Some of the other reviews said hanging is difficult and how that I have them in hand I can see why. The way the holes are in the back of the plate will allow you to hang it any direction (up, down, sideways, or at an angle). Once I figure out how to hang one of them though, I'm sure the others will go quickly.
