How to hang christmas lights in my room?
I want to hang Christmas Lights along the top of the walls in my room to decorate it, but i don’t know how im going to hang them up. I cant get the clips because there’s nothing for them to latch onto. please help 
and also please don’t say its a fire hazard im already aware and am not going to leave them on all the time.
Yeah, like the last person said, you can use thumbtacks or nails–just make sure you don’t push the tack through the wire–usually christmas lights are made up of 3 or 4 skinny wires all twisted together, and you can push the nail or tack in the spaces BETWEEN the wires vs nailing through the wire itself (which is obviously unsafe, LOL).

get thumb tack and put 1 or 2 in like each corner and let it all dangle and hang the corners on the thumbtacks.

You could hammer some nails into the wall so that the cords sit across them.

Maybe something like this?

That way you can remove them when you’re done and they won’t leave a mark

Use really thin long nails. That way your not damaging the wall, and it will be easy to fill in the holes.

3M makes removable hooks for christmas decorations, in both small and medium sizes. They are easily removed and do not damage the walls. Can be found at home improvements stores, Walmart, Target.
I would stay away from metal thumb tacks thru the light cords, if you damage the plastic coating with the tack, you can cause yourself to be shocked or cause a fire hazard.
