Abstract

A decoration hanger comprised of at least three layers, attached at the upper portion to form a solid piece and the bottom portions being separate layers that have adhesive stripping used for the placement of multiple decorations. The device is preferably made from lightweight, flexible material and two dimensional when flat for easier shipping and storage. When is use by the consumer, the decoration hanger would be mounted by adhesive stripping located on the upper portion of the back of the base layer, then any lightweight decorations would be attached using the adhesive stripping located on the front of the base layer, the back and the front of the middle layer and the back of the top layer. After use, removal of the hanger is aided by a tab that helps in the prevention of damage to the surfaces to which the hanger is mounted.
