How to stick xmas lights to new upvc windows???

heldaz

Hiya

we have just had new upvc windows put in but we used to have wood surround windows which we used to attach our xmas lights to, does anyone have any ideas as to how we can still use the lights in the new windows??

thanks in advance

depends on how heavy they are,
most shops selling zmas decorations sell packs of hooks with attached suckers to attach to upvc etc,
or you could use bluetack if they very lightweight,

Hi franky

they are quite heavy , i did wonder about the sucker ones but wondered if they would stay stuck in a warm room or would they slide?

sorry for so many questions lol

I use some quite large ones from Woolworths I think,
and use plenty of them and always worked so far

I used clear sellotape last, by winding a piece round the wire and the keeping the sticky bit at the back to stick to the frame, worked ok and you couldn't see it was there,
difficult to explain, but i hope you understood that a bit ??? i'm not the best at explaining stuff :-X

tru

I understood, I do the same thing ;D

I've used my hooks for few years and never thought sticky tape
