Hang your Christmas fairy lights outside with handy little hooks

About a year ago to the day I was hanging my holiday string lights around the house when I decided that I wanted a way to hang them inside the little window cut-out on my front porch. Having used sugru for a while up to this point, I decided to try and use my latest holiday gift as a means for hooking the string lights to the brick hole. I started by forming little Sugru spikes in the brick, then I hooked back the Sugru till it almost touched the brick, then I waited for it to dry. The result you see is a full year later in typical Oklahoma weather. The hooks hold strong and perform great as a set of anchors for the lights. By sugru guru @propofokgov
