Smile Attempt at first mount

I have never mounted a plant before, but I have two pots of SLC Red Delight that seem to be doing well and I thought I might try to mount the smaller one. I read that cholla logs make good mounts. I have a number of these from various crabitats I've tended. Does anyone have any experience using these and is there anything I should know before I make the attempt. I will be using spagnum and fishing line to tie the spag and plant to the log. Should I orient the cattleya to climb upwards or downwards? Thanks for the help.
