Command 3M 17026Clr-Vp Clear Decorating Clips For Christmas And Fairy Lights, Value Pack Of 40 Clips And 48 Clear Adhesive Strips, 6.7 In*1.05 In*3.8 In

Exactly what is in the pic.

Bought these do I could hang up Christmas decorations without damaging the painted walls when I took them down as directed more than one coat of paint came with them. They do not perform as described. Very disappointed.Images shows just one of the ruined walls. The other wall, difficult to photograph as they were at high level, took the paint back to plaster!

I bought two gutter icicle light sets from Homebase years ago when the builder working next door said he would fit them. I haven't used them since as I can't fit them and they were expensive. I decided this year to use them across my window and porch. I came across these and read a review which said they work well outside. I bought two packs. I followed the instructions exactly, especially for prepping, and it was a dream to fit them right across the top of the window frame and around the porch. The lights were gripped nicely by them and I was so pleased I decided to use them in this way. I know it's not ideal, but it still looks festive. I hope they will stay put throughout the Christmas period. A quick photo in case anyone else has the same problem ;o)They've been up for a week now with gale force winds and rain and are still perfect! I was so pleased I used them inside for my window net lights. Highly recommended.

I only just discovered these Command products recently and want to know why no-one has told me about them before! I am old enough to remember the invention of Blu Tack (c1970) and my excitement of getting some (not sure my mother was so thrilled) to hang my posters but these Command products are even more exciting! I have no idea how they work but they do and are quite miraculous! The strips are holding up quite weighty pictures and these Decoration Clips worked perfectly for hanging Christmas lights that I've not put up for years as hanging them was too tricky. Even better, I've left the clips up for next Christmas as they're pretty much invisible once up. Really easy to put up and very robust. I must tell all and sundry about these...or maybe I'm the only person who've never heard of them before?!

I'd not long ago redecorated, so I didn't want to bang nails in the walls for my fairy lights. These are perfect. The lights are still up so I don't know how easily they'll come off without damage, though it looks easy *if* you follow the instructions. Before putting the lights up, I stepped back and had a look; the hooks are all along the top of the walls where they meet the ceiling, and are hardly visible, looking like faint smudges that you probably wouldn't even notice, so I might leave them in place for next year. (Look, I just want an easy life, OK?)Definitely recommended.

I'm not sure if these are meant to be used outside . I have a upvc soffit running across the front of the house and didn't want to damage it with tape or drawing pins when hanging Xmas house iceicle decorations. I put these up cleaned with rubbing alcohol as per instructions,which you can buy on Amazon for pennies. They stayed up throughout the holiday and are still fixed firmly for next year . As well as being strong they are virtually invisible if you find as I did problems with hanging decorations these might just be the answer.
