    Serena! I searched "How to hang lights on stucco" and your video popped up! It made me happy to see someone I trust give me a way to hang the lights. Sugru is out of most colors but I found it on Amazon. Maybe you can link it to Amazon and earn a few pennies! I'll let you know if it works for me!

    @CarefulSteps1 2 года назад

    what a great vid and job. you are like me.... just seeing something and going...hmmm that could be so much better. you voice and explanations are all so good. current, i was looking for a vid to help me attach solar rope lighting under the cement lip of a small pool and found this.... glad i did, it was fun.
    right now i have a very old ceramic garden frog w/one eye... gotta figure how what to do w/that thing... it is really ugly ;-) maybe make a pirate frog.
    you did such a great job on all of it...truly... and what unique thing to do w/your rope light... well done!
    now if it was me, i'd have paint the metal on those chairs and maybe stencil a name or a word in red on the top back of the chair but that's just me...yours looks great and matches your doors. i'm sure you know, but always be careful w/the color black (e.g. like on seats) as they will make the seat a lot hotter in the sun. i didn't learn that until a few years ago...duh.
    anyhoo, loved the vid...thank you !

    I know this may seem out of the blue but you might want to know that 'gypped' is something that comes from the Roma people, and gypsies, which they generally consider a slur so you might want to look into use of the word.

      I watched it almost immediately after she uploaded the video and DM her to alerted her to the slur. She has re-edited the video and removed it. As most people she didn't know it was a slur. I'm glad she took quick action.

    @victoriacharlesworth7099 4 года назад +27

    That amazing glue is most definitely invented by a woman who couldn’t get her Christmas lights up without drilling. I NEEEED this stuff! 😃
    Edit: beautiful job by the way 👍💕
    Perhaps mix up some paint to match your brick/house paint and go over those little glue points 🤷‍♀️

    • @ThriftDiving
      @ThriftDiving  4 года назад +9

      Great minds think alike! I was actually going to do that--mix up some matching paint, but in the end, I was like, "oh hell, who cares." LOL. No one comes that close to my house anyhow. And at night, you can't see the Sugru. LOL Call it "lazy DIY" perhaps?? Oh! I was going to say, also that with painting the sugru, the paint may not stick well unless you prime it. So I'd prime it first with an oil-based primer, let it dry, and then paint it. The tough thing about painting it on the wall, though, after it's dried is that you'd had to be painstakingly careful that you don't get paint on the brick. That's another reason why I just left it alone.

    • @victoriacharlesworth7099
      @victoriacharlesworth7099 4 года назад +2

      Thrift Diving ahh, see, now that’s why you are the expert 😄😉. It looks superb either way and I will most definitely be buying some and am so pleased I saw this is invented and available. Oh The trouble I have filling in holes after the Christmas lights come down 🙄. We don’t yet have it here in UK so hoping I can get some. Thanks so much for making me aware. God bless 😊💕

    I like it but I would have cut a cubbie out of the bushes for both chairs then placed ottom(s) in front and tall flowers back ...surrounded by LED lights for a more intimate appeal. Have flowers floating from "home" to back of cubbie". Just a thought.

    So, with the zip locks, what you're saying is that you don’t have any screws loose? 😅😅😅. Sorry, couldn't resist! LOL. Maybe its me but $20/chair seems expensive. I wouldn't have gone over $10 ea. At most. Especially when you have to replace the wood. One question though. When it comes time to take down the lights, how hard is it to take that clay off? Good little video! 😊

    QUESTION ... Can the Sugru be easily removed from the brick when taking down the lights? Would appreciate an answer. Thank you.

    • @ThriftDiving
      @ThriftDiving  3 месяца назад

      I think if you press gently enough for it to stick, but not smear it into the brick, it's easier to remove.

    • @jvjanice
      @jvjanice 3 месяца назад

      Does it lift off/pull off after having the holiday lights up? Or is there a trick to removing it? I understand what you mean about not smearing it into the brick.

      I tried it on the side of my kitchen cabinets when I first received it, making a little hook and when I removed it a couple weeks later, it had a little bit of residue, but when I wiped with the sponge, it came off. So it looks to be apartment safe! :)
