Okay, so you’ve decided to make your house a Christmas wonderland this year. Do not feel alone. An essential part of each holiday is the enchantment of sparkling EverLights, and with the correct equipment, you can make this chore fun and easy. Let’s dive into the necessities that will brighten your festive spirit and your home.
We will begin by discussing ladders. A ladder is essential, but sometimes overlooked, in light-hanging excursions. Think about getting a strong extension ladder or a multipurpose stepladder, depending on how tall your house is. When juggling gutters and festive splendor, a lightweight yet sturdy fiberglass ladder is an absolute lifesaver. Plus, they are advantageous since they do not conduct electricity.
Adjacent, the clips. We’re discussing various clips! The most reliable tools for attaching those glittering lights are sticky hooks, shingle tabs, and gutter clips. No one likes to feel like Lucy in a candy factory on Christmas Eve while re-hanging strands. Gutter clips are incredibly simple to use; no tools are necessary. Just slide them on, fasten your lights, and you’re good to go. Adhesive hooks are a multipurpose solution for homes without gutters since they adhere to a wide variety of surfaces, including masonry.
Now for a touch of technological enchantment: smart timers. Your sanity and your energy bill will be spared by these devices. What a dream! You could even control your lights remotely or set them to turn on and off at certain times! Connecting smart timers with applications lets you schedule tasks and change the light’s brightness. Left them on inadvertently? The light goes out as soon as you touch your phone. Simple as pie.
Think about smart bulbs if you want to add some style. These stunning beings can dance to your music and change colors at the touch of a finger. An extravaganza of lights that could compete with the North Pole? It will amaze Rudolph.
In my experience, it’s best to wear gloves. Wearing gloves helps protect your hands from cuts and shocks. Like in Mission: Impossible: Holiday Edition, they put you in the mood to prepare for a mission. Protective eyewear is also a good idea. Be careful to shield your eyes from those obstinate lights.
And lastly, a word of advice: before you install your lights, make sure they work. It hurts to put dozens of lights on and then realize they don’t work. The disappointment of realizing Santa skipped the cookie delivery because he devoured them all!
The neighborhood will be green with envy when they see the spectacular display you’ll put on with the help of these methods and gadgets that Santa brought you. Thank you for having me.
