But as you do, consider your future self and what a mess next year will be if you ball up those Christmas string lights and hope for the best. Instead, store string lights the right way\u2014with cardboard.<\/p>\n<p>Cardboard or a paper towel roll and some scissors are all you need to prevent tangled Christmas lights.<\/p>\n<p>How does this storage hack work? There are two methods. For the first, you\u2019ll need paper towel rolls or leftover gift wrap rolls. Grab an empty tube and slip one end of your lights into the opening at the top. Allow it to drop about halfway down the tube, and then, secure it in place at the top with a bit of tape.<\/p>\n<p>Once your lights are secure, simply wrap the strand around the roll. Once the lights are completely wr<a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/download-scripts-themes-apps\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"9\" title=\"Download Scripts &amp; Themes &amp; Apps\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">app<\/a>ed, secure the other end with tape, and you\u2019re done!<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"tiktok-embed\" cite=\"https:\/\/www.tiktok.com\/@fallon.maynard\/video\/7119940381491383598\" data-video-id=\"7119940381491383598\" data-embed-from=\"oembed\" style=\"max-width: 605px;min-width: 325px;\">\n<section><a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"@fallon.maynard\" href=\"https:\/\/www.tiktok.com\/@fallon.maynard?refer=embed\">@fallon.maynard<\/a> Wish I learned this <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"storagehack\" href=\"https:\/\/www.tiktok.com\/tag\/storagehack?refer=embed\">#storagehack<\/a> years ago\ud83d\ude05\ud83c\udf84 <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"christmaslights\" href=\"https:\/\/www.tiktok.com\/tag\/christmaslights?refer=embed\">#christmaslights<\/a> <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"stringlights\" href=\"https:\/\/www.tiktok.com\/tag\/stringlights?refer=embed\">#stringlights<\/a><\/p>\n<p> <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"\u266c Vegas (From the Original Motion Picture Soundtrack ELVIS) - Doja Cat\" href=\"https:\/\/www.tiktok.com\/music\/Vegas-From-the-Original-Motion-Picture-Soundtrack-ELVIS-7086593547415128066?refer=embed\">\u266c Vegas (From the Original Motion Picture Soundtrack ELVIS) &#8211; Doja Cat<\/a> <\/section>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>If you\u2019ve already tossed your paper towel rolls or leftover gift wrap, don\u2019t worry. If you\u2019ve got the cardboard boxes your gifts were shipped in lying around, you can try the second method.<\/p>\n<p>Cut a piece of cardboard into a rectangle. Tape one end of the lights to the board, and then, steadily wrap the lights around the board. Once you reach the end, tuck it into the other lights. All you\u2019ll have to do next year is unroll them. Plus, the method is compact and can store quite a few strands.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"tiktok-embed\" cite=\"https:\/\/www.tiktok.com\/@montross.made\/video\/6902044702829219078\" data-video-id=\"6902044702829219078\" data-embed-from=\"oembed\" style=\"max-width: 605px;min-width: 325px;\">\n<section><a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"@montross.made\" href=\"https:\/\/www.tiktok.com\/@montross.made?refer=embed\">@montross.made<\/a> Christmas light storage hack! <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"learnontiktok\" href=\"https:\/\/www.tiktok.com\/tag\/learnontiktok?refer=embed\">#learnontiktok<\/a> <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"tiktokpartner\" href=\"https:\/\/www.tiktok.com\/tag\/tiktokpartner?refer=embed\">#tiktokpartner<\/a> <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"christmashack\" href=\"https:\/\/www.tiktok.com\/tag\/christmashack?refer=embed\">#christmashack<\/a> <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"storagehacks\" href=\"https:\/\/www.tiktok.com\/tag\/storagehacks?refer=embed\">#storagehacks<\/a> <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"christmastip\" href=\"https:\/\/www.tiktok.com\/tag\/christmastip?refer=embed\">#christmastip<\/a><\/p>\n<p> <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"\u266c Jingle Bells - Christmas Songs\" href=\"https:\/\/www.tiktok.com\/music\/Jingle-Bells-6761110232002201602?refer=embed\">\u266c Jingle Bells &#8211; Christmas Songs<\/a> <\/section>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>These simple and easy DIY Christmas light storage hacks are perfect if you\u2019re in a pinch but want to get your holiday decorations down quickly.
