💡 How to HANG STRING LIGHTS on your balcony/patio/deck NO TOOLS or glue (no holes, renter friendly!)

Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль

Want to hang string lights without tools? Here's an easy cheap removable, renter friendly solution!
*A NOTE ABOUT SUGRU*: it is soft and flexible when it dries so your hook may not work well or need to be reinforced; if you want something sturdier, you can use the Sugru as adhesive since the concrete ceiling in my case is porous and stick a small command hook wire hook into the Sugru or DIY with a bent paper clip into the SUGRU as a hook.

    haha as a vertically challenged person, tongs are used EVERYWHERE in my home when I am too lazy to get a step ladder out or Cirque du Soleil my way up the counter. I have this cleaning agent for my Zojirushi hot water boiler kzread.info/dash/bejne/fZxt27mOl8bRiNY.html that I need to reach once in a while, I put a rubber band around the container, so I can use my tongs to grab it. Works perfect.

    Thanks for this. I'm a renter for the first time in decades. I now have a tiny patio and solar lights I've been carrying around forever. Everything here is cinder block and concrete, so it looks like Sugru is going to be my new go-to. Totally forgot about that stuff.

    This is awesome! Thanks for sharing, and I'm excited to use your set up on my balcony to hang the string lights I bought. A question: how would I remove the sugru hook ultimately when it's time to leave my rental?

  • @GadgetsGearCoffee

    From the sugru site: simply slice it off with a knife, scalpel, or our Sugru remover. Then, scrape off any residue with your fingernail and wipe clean with a tissue. If it's on cement and porous it might leave a darker splotch stain if you have the black but if it's not going to be noticeable like my cement where it's splotchy color anyway it won't be noticeable

    This has been EXTREMELY helpful!! Thank you! I wonder if I could use this method(sugru) for hanging plants? 🤔 what do you think?

  • @GadgetsGearCoffee

    @GadgetsGearCoffee

    Sugru is malleable. I only used it because of the porous nature of cement and the irregular surface. If I had to do it over again, I'd have stuck a paperclip in the sugru or the hook wire of the small command hook IN the sugru (as noted in my updated description). I don't know what your situation is regarding the plants and your outdoor space, Sugru won't hold up that much weight on its own. I'd suggest the appropriate command hooks but even then, you have to use common sense and look at the weight limitations of the command hook tape. You wouldn't want a mess. If you go on my YT page, I made a KZread short using the command hooks to hold up a planter off my ceiling INSIDE my home but it's very lightweight and it's air plants. It's been up for months no issues and I love it :)

    It is! And winter just started and we had snow, tho my balcony is covered, and it still is. If your surface is clean before adhering, it's a new piece of tape and within the temperature parameters, you should be good
