Here’s my video on how I made the loops to hang the wire:

The key, obviously, is power and having something strong to hang the lights on. I strung my lights between two trees and our porch. Springs were key…especially with moving trees! If you don’t include the springs the line could snap. I used 1/16″ line which has held up well. This temporary solution became permanent. A lot of people have asked me about “weather proof” connections. I didn’t weather proof any of them…never had an issue. I used cafe lights from Cost Plus World Market. I am not including link because i do not recommend them.
