Right about now, we're all getting a little jolly putting up our holiday lights to make our homes sparkle from now until January. Wanna know the trick tens of thousands of Amazon shoppers are using to make it easy to hang decor ... and even easier to take it down? Command Indoor Mini Light Clips.

Put that hammer back in the toolbox! Here's a stress-free way to get a grip this holiday season.

$9 at Amazon

Why is it a good deal? 💰

These little doodads typically go for an already affordable $12. Thanks to Black Friday, this $9 is the lowest we've seen for them all year.

Why do I need this? 🧐

These little hooks are designed to "disappear" behind your decor, whether it's holiday lights or birthday banners, with no screws or nails required.

Each hook has two parts: the tiny clear rubber hook for hanging your decor and an adhesive strip that sticks to the wall. They attach securely and work best on walls, tile, metal, and glass, as long as the surface is flat. Want to rearrange things? They'll peel right off — no damage done.

What reviewers say 💬

More than 40,000 shoppers rave about the decor problem solvers.

Pros 👍

"These are much better for string or Christmas lights and I can't believe I only recently discovered them," gushed a rave reviewer. "They're way less noticeable and they make lights look straight and neat. They're so easy to use and have held up very well so far. Will be buying more of these in the future!"

"Perfect trick for Christmas lights!" shared a savvy decorator. "This product is amazing! It works great for putting up Christmas lights around window frames and trim. The adhesive works really well and stays on the window."

"I needed a way to hang my decorations on the doorframe of the front door," another five-star fan shared. "These clips were almost invisible. They were easy to use and were just what we needed."

Cons 👎

Some shoppers griped that the grip might be too tight.

"Perfect to hang string lights — it's neat, unlike using tape," wrote one. "Barely shows on walls. But it’s kind hard to remove after applying pressure."

Another reviewer reasoned: "I wish they come out easy when done, but I guess I don’t want them to fall off either, so overall good product."

Because this time of year is all about decking your halls, not destroying them.
