Why is half my strand of Christmas lights out?

• <div><p>It can be frustrating to see one half of your lights working while the other half is dark. Long strands of Christmas lights often contain more than one circuit. If half of your strand won’t light up, there’s likely a burned-out or loose bulb on that circuit in the strand. Check the strand and replace any loose or damaged bulbs. </p></div>

How can I save money when hiring a holiday decorator?

• <div><p>One of the easiest ways to save money when hiring a holiday decorator is to provide storage for your decorations. If you have the space, you can save hundreds or even thousands of dollars by avoiding storage costs through your professional. It’s also a good idea to provide as much direction as possible for your professional, as this can cut down on design services. Finally, you can pay for your decorator to take down your decorations at the end of the season, but packaging and storing them yourself will save money on labor.</p></div>

Q: Can tree decorators handle artificial Christmas trees?

• <div><p>Decorators often prefer artificial Christmas trees. They&rsquo;re easier to handle and shape, and decorators don&rsquo;t have to worry about bugs or allergies. It&rsquo;s also an ideal choice because artificial trees keep up appearances without owners needing to schedule watering. </p><p>However, always confirm that decorators are ready to unbox and set up the artificial tree. If they don&rsquo;t include tree set-up in their services, you may need to hire a general handyperson for that task.</p><p> </p></div>

Q: Is it safe to staple Christmas lights to your roof?

• <div><p>While it&rsquo;s a somewhat common method for hanging Christmas lights, using a staple gun is not safe for your roof. Poking any kind of hole can potentially damage your roof and expose it to the elements, whether it&rsquo;s from nails or a staple gun. Shingle tabs are the best way to hang lights on your roof without the damage.</p></div>

Q: How do you attach Christmas lights to palm trees?

• <div><p>You can attach Christmas lights to your palm tree by securely wrapping the strings around the tree. If you notice the strands slipping, you can also use a staple gun to secure them to the trunk.</p></div>

They had no ropes to climb the tree only a ladder. They did not have the proper equipment but had purchased a small chain saw for the job. They let the limbs over the house fall onto the roof which had just been replaced. Something must have fallen on one of my garden decorations because it was...

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.
