Wipe the glass or tile with alcohol or a clean towel, let it dry (or warm briefly with a hairdryer), press the suction cups firmly, and add the load-bearing brackets underneath the acrylic to stabilize the shelf.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eClean surface thoroughly of dust, grease, and moisture.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePress each suction cup flat against the glass until you feel firm contact.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eAttach the three main cups to the top of the shelf and bracket cups beneath for added support.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDo not mount to rough or uneven surfaces — smooth glass and glazed tile work best.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat weight and plant sizes will this shelf support?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEach acrylic shelf uses three large suction cups and carries up to approximately 10 pounds; adding a load-bearing leg increases capacity slightly.
