Get this Look: Traditional Glass C9 Bulbs 1

This project used 625 LED bulbs installed into SPT-2 cord purchased in a bulk spool. To create this look, start with this supply list.

Materials

A classic project using clips along the shingle edges and ridge row clips at the peaks of the roof. 

Along the roofline, choose clips that direct the bulb either toward the sky or the street. Clips that have “all in one” styling can also be used along gutters. 

Purchase enough clips have a clip for every bulb.

Our favorite clips to install along a roofline include: 

Along the peak of the roof, consider these ridge row clips:

Lighting the peaks or ridges of the roof highlights the elevation of this house and makes the installation more exciting. 

First-time installation? If you aren’t ready to take on the peaks, start with the outline of the house and add the peaks next year. 

Nervous about that installation along the roof peaks? Reach out to an off-season roofing company or Christmas lights installer in your area.
