Everything was fine and dandy until one day the lowest one {phew!} and biggest one randomly jumped off the wall. No human or doggie was injured so we were relieved!
I tried using my old method of "epoxy + metal d-ring" but the epoxy was just not into holding the d-rings in place like it had done previously. At this point I was getting nervous about how I was going to re-affix the meedallion to the wall because a nail wouldn't work and I felt like I had limited options.
Then, I had a lightbulb moment! A few weeks prior to the medallion-falling incident the nice people at 3M had sent me a huge container of their fabulous command products. I'm talking picture hanging supplies, hooks, bins, velcro frame holders...you name it, it was in there!
I flipped out when I received it because I felt a little bit like a celebrity receiving some swag--ha ha-love it! ; )
I went through the bin trying to find something that would work when I came across the velcro picture hanging strips!
I ripped those babies out of the package, followed the instructions and placed them on the medallion.
Then I positioned the medallion on the wall and then I removed said medallion to let the stickers cure...as seen below {don't mind my crooked strips--they still held it!}:
And finally after an hour, D and I attached the medallion velcro to the wall velcro and it's been smooth sailing ever since!
I totally recommend grabbing yourself some of these. Now I'm thinking of using some for the rest of my plates I want to add to our kitchen wall! Oh, the possibilities!

P.S. Yes, I was sent this package free of charge...but no, I wasn't asked to blog about it. It's almost ironic that the medallion incident seemed to happen at the perfect time to showcase 3M's kindness. Additionally, I definitely did not receive any $$ incentive for posting this. I Promise! I was truly impressed with their product!
