• You can "wear" objects--attach them to your avatar.  
• Pre-made objects you get may have attachment points already set.
• You can  set an attach point for any full perm object you own.  
• Once an object is attached, you can position it as you wish.
• When an object has an attachment point set, you can "wear" it
• You can also "wear" clothes, but that is not like "wearing" objects
