How do you hang Christmas lights on a ceiling without hooks?

• <div><p>If you can’t hang Christmas lights with hooks, try one of the above methods, or consider an out-of-the-box idea like stringing the lights over a curtain rod that hangs close to the ceiling. It’s also possible to buy transparent tape created to hold items with weight. Just make sure that it won’t damage the paint during removal. </p></div>

Can you hang lights on soffit?

• <div><p>Yes, you can hang Christmas lights from the soffit of your roof, but it requires a bit more effort than hanging from the gutters or eaves. You’ll need to add an adhesive hook or tie to the underside of the soffit to keep the lights in place. Consider adding a soffit hook every 12 to 18 inches for best visual results.</p></div>

How long can you hang lights on stucco without damage?

• <div><p>The length of time shouldn’t matter much if you stick with lightweight Christmas lights and similar decorations. Those shouldn’t pose risks to your stucco. You should avoid attaching anything to your stucco that could fall because it’s too heavy, which may take part of the stucco with it. Some methods, like using double-sided tape or adhesive hooks, will naturally wear out over time and lead to falling lights, so don’t expect to leave these lights up year-round.</p></div>

Q: How do you make Christmas lights easy to hang next year?

• <div><p>Take a picture of your house to easily replicate the same design for next year and keep the clips and accessories. When storing your lights, wrap them around cardboard so they don&rsquo;t get tangled. Purchase a ladderless extension pole kit to hang your lights (around <b>$30 to $50</b>) for hard to reach areas.</p></div>

Q: Can you put Christmas lights on metal?

• <div><p>The simplest way to put Christmas lights on any metal surface is by using a magnetic hook or clip. You can also purchase magnetic lights, which should easily stick to any magnetic surface. Keep in mind that not all metals are magnetic. In that case, you&rsquo;ll need to use a different clip.</p></div>
