Hello Sharen! Hmm… I would probably try moving the hanger higher or lower on the back, or maybe making the hanging cord shorter? Or maybe if you’re hanging it on a nail or something like that, try hanging it on something shorter like a thumb tack, push pin, or one of those Command hooks. Mine didn’t do that so I’m not sure, I hung it on the wall with a push pin and it stayed there for a couple years until I just recently took it down during our move. I hope that helps! Thanks for stopping by! 🙂
