DIY Christmas light holder.

Dear Fellow Christmas’s light hangers. (AKA Men).
I made this simple Christmas’s light holder years ago and I keep forgetting to share. But this simple device makes hanging lights a breeze. The lights wrap around the wooden holder with the hooks that hold it on the gutter as you hang. Your lights are not dragging on the ground and getting stepped on. I can take out my lights & hang them around my house in like 10 mins, I hang the icicle style lights at one of my homes and 1/2 the time your un tangling the lights and in the process you end up breaking the lights for one reason or another. This handy device not only helps you hang the lights quickly it keeps you from breaking them I have had the same cheep LED lights for like 8 years now!!!. Bonus when your done it holds the lights in the storage position so the lights can hang out of the way when the season is over.

Tip #2 take the time install the hooks so you don’t have to deal with the stupid clips
Tip #3 a broom handle with a slot cut in the end makes it so you can hang up & take down the lights with out going up and down a ladder. This saves you lots of time!!

The best part is that you greatly improved it over the XXX Light Holder 5000.

Really great idea Grant!
