Qwiki Tips

Identifying Light Strings: One easy way that you can identify light strings (this is good for mega tree's and mini trees) is to take some spray paint and mark the top of the plugs with the color of the with an appropriate paint color. Alternatively you could get color coded zipties and place them on the string next to the male plug. The color of the ziptie indicates the color of the string.
Ex: Red strings get a red ziptie and green strings get no ziptie.

Easy Light Storage: Balling up your lights makes them easy to store, and put up next year. ChristmasDisplays.net How-To

Anchors: If you have ever put out an inflatable or 3D wireframe deer you know the small thin metal spikes they come with pull out of the ground rather easily. In a high wind the display piece may blow away all together, this is very frustrating. I use plastic tent stakes to anchor down most of my display pieces. They do a great jod and I have not had even one pull out yet. You can get them in the camping section at any general merchandise store like Target, Walmart and Kmart.
