    My neighbor borrowed my extension ladder so he could hang hand made Christmas light balls on the huge tree in his front yard. He said he followed your intructions! The ones he made are red, green, yellow and blue. They look amazing!

    These look awesome. They remind me of the light balls at the Botanical Gardens during their Christmas season. And they look easy to make. We are trying them this year.

    A 2 X 4 foot mess isn’t correct! I think you meant 4 X 4 foot!

      Most children wire is standard 2 foot x (length purchased) and he is also working with two foot wide roll.

      How are you going to get the wire to stay on a slippery plastic surface?

    LOL words to red flag a "nightmare" of pinched fingers, swearing and throwing things around; "Tricky"......"Logistical nightmare".....oh yeah, I'll jump right on this project, yeah that's the ticket. Let's make chicken wire lighted balls. Let's blow some fuses while we're at it. Say you make 4 of them.....that's 1200 mini lights, with 4 extension cords hanging in your tree. Let's blow a 20 amp circuit that has a 15 amp plug! "Oh look! How pretty! Look at that extension cord tree!!!"

      Working with wire isn’t hard. If you are handy your do it correctly without a big orange 14g extension cord. Silly.

    Why try to make your neighbors jealous? Why does Hollywood always try to act so superior to others. My neighbor made me a cake the other day. We all help one another and it is a nice place to live. Your verbiage ruins a nice crafty video.

      Making your neighbor jealous spurs him to greater accomplishment. When a neighborhood gets together to put on a show, everyone gets entertained, esp. the drive-bys. It brings neighbors closer together.
