Even the wood dancers on my lamp (see pic in posted thread) are stapled. Dosen't sound too secure but, hey, it's lasted this long through a few owners, shipping, hanging and all. Pictured in the same thread are the Hawaiian Islands which turned out not to be Witco (I still love them because I like the look) These I attached to the blue backing myself. 5 minutes with a staple gun is all it took, no reason to better attach them or risk greater damage to the wood (larger holes, cracks, dings, etc.) K.I.S.S. https://tikicentral.com/viewtopic.php?topic=3849&forum=5&vpost=34917 BTW, are your lamps rewired and hung? Let me know if you have too many!! I owe you some pics of mine. I will post some when I get back from my vacation. My new furniture looks awesome and I will snap some living room pics in Sept.
