Should you DIY or hire a pro to hang Christmas lights?

• <div><p>You can tackle hanging Christmas lights yourself with the right tools, accessories, and a trusted friend or neighbor. You’ll need to purchase a ladder (<b>$100 to $300</b>), clips (<b>$10 to $20</b>), hooks (<b>$10 to $15</b>), and lights (<b>$25 to $100 per string</b>).</p><p>Otherwise, you should hire a trusted <a href="https://www.angi.com/nearme/holiday-decorators/">holiday light installer</a> near you. You’ll pay an average price of <b>$200 to $650</b>, but you’ll have peace of mind knowing that the job is done correctly and safely. </p></div>

Q: How long does it take to install holiday lighting?

• <div><p>The installation duration typically ranges from a few hours to a full day, depending on the size and complexity of the design. Coordinating with professionals can help estimate more precise timelines based on your specific installation preferences.</p></div>

Q: What bulb makes Christmas lights blink?

• <div><p>A blinking, or twinkle, bulb makes Christmas lights blink. Usually, this type of bulb has a silver or red tip, making it easily distinguishable from other non-blinking bulbs. Most packages of Christmas lights come with additional blinking and non-blinking bulbs. Additional bulbs can be purchased at a hardware store or online retailer.</p></div>

Q: Is it worth fixing Christmas lights?

• <div><p>Repairing a strand of Christmas lights will save you a few dollars and the hassle of going to the store to purchase new ones. That may or may not be enough to make fixing them worth it to you. However, if the lights are already hanging or around the tree, removing and replacing them is far more time-consuming than performing a quick repair job. </p></div>

Q: How do professionals put lights on a Christmas tree?

• <div><p>Professionals use the same methods found in this guide unless they&rsquo;re decorating a particularly large Christmas tree. In that case, they may also make use of tools like extension poles to get the job done. </p></div>
