Black Out Caps

Have you ever stood back from your outdoor holiday decorations and thought to yourself, "I wish there wasn't all those bulbs hanging down from that window." I think just about anyone that has ever decorated something with mini lights has had that thought. But we have a great solution for that exact problem.

Black out caps are little plastic covers that slide right onto a mini light bulb. This way you can hide all those pesky extra lights that hang down when you plug your lights up. You never even notice them when you turn your lights on in the evening. This will give you decorating a much cleaner and even professional look.

We also have color caps. These will change any clear mini light to a different color. If you have a display or another decoration that needs clear and color mini lights on the same string, this will work perfectly. You just choose the color you need and slide it on you mini light bulb.

It is that simple.

DIY Tinsel Wreath

Tinsel and fairly lights turned into a holiday wreath. It doesn't get more festive than that. This very simple and inexpensive DIY project will be a great addition to your holiday decor. 

All you are going to need is some tinsel in the color of your choice and battery LED lights to match, masking tape and a foam wreath. Some of these item might even be laying around from some old decorations that don't get used anymore. 

Lay down your foam wreath and decide where you want the lights to start and end. The ending point will need to be in the back at either the top or the bottom, to keep it hidden and secure. Start taping your lights down and continue to wrap them all the way around the wreath, taping as you go. 

Next you can start wrapping your tinsel around the wreath, starting where you started your  battery light string. Be sure to adjust your lights as you wrap your tinsel so they aren't hidden. 

Secure your tinsel and use the excess to hang it up on your door at the desired length. Then turn your lights on and enjoy.

Fall Light Decorations

Fall is one of my all time favorite seasons. The leaves changing, the weather starting to cool off and pumpkins are everywhere. One of the most fun parts of fall is the decor. There are so many options for fall decorations but have you thought about how you would light up your Autumn decorations? Well, we have.


Brown wire mini lights are a wonderful option during the fall months. Wrap a strand of brown wire lights in you centerpieces or in fun fall leaf garland. These lights will blend perfectly with your decor and will give you table or mantle a nice glow.

Brown wire mini lights come in 3 and 4 inch spacing with bulb counts of 20, 50 and 100. The 20 count will be great for use in centerpieces or a tablescape. They are short with no end connector. This way it won't overwhelm your arrangement. The 50 and 100 bulb counts are great for garland and larger scale decorations. You will have plenty of ambient light from your fall mini lights.

Flicker flame bulbs are another fun and festive option for fall decor. You can use them in you garland or standing alone next to fall floral arrangements or group them in the middle of a table for a centerpiece. These have a very realistic flicker just like the flame from a candle. But with these lights you won;t have to worry about anything catching on fire or endangering kids or pets with an open flame. You can just plug them in and forget about them. Perfect for soft lighting on chilly fall nights.

You just have to be creative and these fall lighting option can a long way. We hope you have a fun and festive fall season.

Speed Shingle Tabs

We are so proud to offer a selection of USA made light clips to our customers. But we would like to tell you a little more a specific type of clip that is perfect for outdoor decorating, especially along a roof line.

Shingle speed tabs are a wonderful tool when you want to line your roof with lights during the holidays. These tabs can be used on almost any roof types; metal, tile, wood, composition. Shingle speed tabs are made with UV stabilized poly so they won't be worn down from sunlight. Also, they are made with increased rigidity, so there will be no harm from snow and ice. These clips will last for quite a long time in even the most unpredictable climates.

Installation with Speed Shingle Tabs is also much quicker than with some other clips. With these you can install a fully assembled light string. This will save a lot of time while decorating for the holidays.

These light clips will also accommodate for C7 and C9 light strings, both LED and incandescent. This means that any of the lights you have always been using for you home decorating can still be used. Big money saver.

For flat roofs, mostly with commercial buildings, there is the Flat Roof Adapter. These will help attach the speed shingle tabs a flat surface roof. These can be affixed to the flat surface with either screws or adhesive.

These will work for any decorating project on a home or business. And they are all made right here in the USA.
