Any Ideas for Hanging Christmas Lights from the Drip Molding?

[shadetreemech]

We're gonna be in a Christmas Parade in a week. I've got lights and garlands and such and plan on using those Command pull-strip hooks on the body. Got any ideas for hanging lights from the gutter? I did use the search...


Thanks,

Dan

Sounds fun, Dan.

Laundry pins?

Magnetic chip bag clamps?
(like for Lay’s)

JB Weld if wanting them year-round?

Happy Holidays.

I use painters tape. We do a VW lightup cruise every year, and most people in the cruise painters tape it on. It doesn't hurt your paint, you can stick it everywhere, its reasonably waterproof.

We hang lights on our Bus every year and use small pinch clips. We found them at the $ store and come in a mix of colours. They are made of heavy gauge wire (looks like a big paperclip) but formed like a clothes pinch.
