How do you attach Christmas decorations to the roof?

• <div><p>During the holidays, big box hardware stores sell many kinds of clips and hooks made specifically for hanging Christmas lights—including ridge clips, gutter clips, shingle clips, and mounted hooks. It’s best to avoid nails, staples, and screws since they can damage your roof.</p></div>

How can I save money on Christmas lights?

• <div><p>First of all, don’t shop for bargain lights—often, you’ll end up with a faulty or broken strand, full of dead bulbs or less-than-luminous brightness. Choose quality lights that will last you many years—LED lights have been known to last as long as 100,000 hours. Second, plan ahead and purchase lights for next year’s Christmas during this year’s post-holiday sales. Finally, have a vision and a plan—if you know the measurements of your home, including any windows, doors, and outside bushes you wish to light up, you should be able to only purchase the necessary lights and not more than you need.</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 I use duct tape to hang Christmas lights?

• <div><p>Technically, you can use duct tape to hang Christmas lights, but it&rsquo;s not the best bet. Duct tape or other types of tape retain moisture, which isn&rsquo;t ideal when near an electrical wire. Plus, it can peel off due to the elements. Duct tape is also a very unattractive option, visually speaking. Instead, opt for roof clips for Christmas lights, which are affordable and easy to use.</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>
