Power up the string first so you can visually see the pattern formed as you wrap it, decorating from the top of the tree down. If the tree is in a corner, you can pull from one side of the tree to the other and decorate along the front of the tree to the bottom. If the tree is placed in front of the window, you can wrap the tree 360 degrees and see the lights from the front and back. Love chic vertical lines? It is also very simple, but the spacing below the line should be larger to fit the shape of the tree. For a little 3D feel to the lights, wrap strings of lights between tree branches. In short, as long as you like your holiday.

The white light string is mainly used, and then single-color or multi-color light strings are added on it. b, Use rechargeable LET lights, wire hangers and some nails to make art string lights of various shapes. First cut off the hook on the hanger, then use pliers to twist it into a tree, star or other shape, then wrap the light string, and finally hang it on the edge of the bookshelf or the edge of the window.
c, wrap the light string around the tree outdoors. Wrap the main stem first, then wrap it toward the ends of the branches. After dark, you can see the whole tree light up, like a fairytale effect.
