Holiday Joy Christmas Light Clips - Pack of 100 Gutter Hooks for Outdoor String Lights and Decorations - Holds C5, C7, C9, Mini, Rope, Icicle and LED Lighting

Our mantle is 3+1/2" thick and has a rounded front that extends 3/4" from top edge. Most stocking holders are unsafe with this curved front. I found some that curve back underneath, but they only extend back about 1", which is only 1/4" back from the actual top edge (not safe).These simple, inexpensive, hooks do the job.Based on the pics, I was expecting them to be pretty ugly. While they are not beautiful, they're not ugly either. They exceeded my expectations. With other things on the mantle, these are pretty unobtrusive. The clear plastic hook is triangular in shape and acts a bit like a prism. They look almost silver in light.The plastic is fairly strong. I attached an 8 lb weight, and the hook held well. I wasn't super confident with that weight, but 5 lbs should be no problem.I can't speak to longevity. Plastic fatigue might be a problem. However, giving these 5 stars. Simple, inexpensive, functional.Pics: 1 showing 8 lb weight. 2 side pics (one with weight and one with empty stocking)

I didn’t want to spend a lot for holiday stocking hooks. Came across these and they are perfect for my application. They are modern looking and definitely plastic but have some give and flex, not brittle. They do pick up a little glow from the lights on the mantle, which is nice. The rubber foot on the wood that holds them in place will not damage or scratch. They are a nice shape and do arc off the mantle. Holds the stockings well. No problems. Good option if you don’t want to spend a lot and want a more modern look vs traditional. They will take minimal space when packing them up for season, which is a factor for me.

These little clips worked great for hanging christmas lights!

Was not sure if these would hold but was happily surprised. Hold lights to roof line and sturdy. Simple to install.

Okay, let me set the scene for this review. I'm nearly 60 years old, and I could care less if I ever put Christmas lights up on the house again. But there's a wife here, and if mama ain't happy . . . you know the rest.So I had gutters installed across the front of my house recently, and I thought I would get some gutter clips and try hanging the lights that way for a change. If I gotta do a job that is sometimes less than pleasant, I want the job to go easily. I picked up a bag of clips from Target, but for some reason they wouldn't snap down completely on my gutters. Not sure why. Maybe those are made for a standard type of gutter and mine are different. Those clips went back to Target.The Amazon reviews for these clips got my attention, and the price was right so I decided to try them. It seems kinda funny to be leaving a review about something as mundane as this, but my feelings were a bit more congenial when I was standing on top of the ladder. LOLThese clips really work well. The twisted end of the clip appears to be a good match for most rain gutter types. I was pleasantly surprised at how well these went up, and I grabbed a couple of pics to demonstrate.If you're looking to make fast work of your Christmas lights, invest in a bag or two. You'll thank me.

These are very small, but don't judge a book by its cover. They hang on and tight and are sturdy! It is exactly what I was looking for when attaching to my siding on my house. Also very good on the edge of shingles, they look pretty much invisible and are worth every penny.

They break after one season. They won’t hold up to Texas weather.

We have been using these for years and just had to buy more for expanding family. They do not mark up the mantle and the hold heavy, filled stockings. Initially I bought them just to display the stockings before Christmas, but was delighted to find that they also hold them after they are filled!I also love that they don't take up as much room as the weighted stocking holders and these don't tip once they have been filled.
