• Be sure that you have a good starting point and enough Christmas lights.
• Carefully put away your Christmas tree lights so they won't become damaged.
• When there is an excess of the Christmas lights needing to be added onto the tree, you can use it to decorate the center of the Christmas tree or follow the pattern back to where you started from.
• Use the cardboard from a paper towel roll to store your lights. Wrap the lights around the tube body and store the ends inside the tube itself.

• To avoid accidents, unplug the Christmas lights while decorating your Christmas tree.
