Q: Is it OK to hang Christmas lights from gutters?

• <div><p>It's safe to hang Christmas lights from gutters with a few considerations. First, when installing the lights, follow safe ladder-use guidelines and avoid getting onto the roof. Second, for best results and the integrity of your lights, use clips to keep the bulbs away from inside the gutters where they could run into trouble with water or ice. </p></div>

Q: How can I hang Christmas lights on my ceiling without nails?

• <div><p>You now know you can hang Christmas lights with adhesive hooks, but if you need alternatives, consider pushpins, tacks, staples, and adhesive putty (for small projects). If you have a drop ceiling, look for clips and hooks designed for the metal framing. </p></div>

Q: Do you need a special extension cord for outdoor Christmas lights?

• <div><p>Yes, you should purchase and use an extension cord rated for outdoor use to power Christmas lights. Extension cords intended for indoor use do not have the same protective properties as outdoor versions, so they can&rsquo;t withstand the exposure to the outdoor elements. Be sure to plug your Christmas lights into outdoor extension cords only.</p></div>

Q: How long does it take to hang Christmas lights?

• <div><p>There&rsquo;s no fixed answer to this question, as it depends on the size of your home and the number of lights you want to hang. On average, people spend one to four hours hanging Christmas lights. You should also consider <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/hire-pro-help-decorate-holidays.htm">hiring a holiday decorating service</a> to get the job done quickly and efficiently.</p></div>

Everyone said how good the cake was and how pretty it was decorated. They told us to bring a napkin to match the colors and they did an excellent job of matching colors. Very nice.
