Some basic light hanging tips
So now that we’ve discovered some unique lighting displays, let’s take a look at the basics. It can be a pain trying to figure out what goes where, but this handy guide offers up some great tips on how to hang up your Christmas lights with ease.
Some points mentioned include:
Measure – make sure you measure things such as doors, window frames and any other areas which you want lighting to ensure you have enough cable.
Use of proper lights – it’s important to know the difference between indoor and outdoor lights, as they might not be weatherproof and could cause a hazard.
Use clips – clips make your job so much easier and they are much friendlier to your home than duct tape, nails, screws or staples.
Keep safe – use a sturdy ladder that you can be sure will keep its stability. Even better, you should have someone hold the base of the ladder to keep you from having an injury.
Using a laser light to brighten the mood
Believe it or not, there are plenty of legitimate reasons for you to be using a laser light in your home displays – and we don’t just mean for Christmas either. Other than the fact that they create incredible spectacles, they’re actually proven to have an affect on your mood and even improve it.
Adding a laser light display to your home can help create a relaxing environment. Different colours have this effect too and strategically placing them throughout your home can be to your advantage.
You should use big lights sparingly. Instead use a combination of lamps and fairy lights, as they won’t be as intense and will provide a calming effect. So after a long day they are the perfect remedy to get you properly in the spirit for Christmas.
