How do I string paper lanterns overhead?
December 19th, 2008 | by admin |CMSG asked:
I’m hosting a rooftop party and I want to string some paper lanterns overhead. I have two questions…What kind of wire should I use and how can I attach it in a temporary way? (I want to use individual lanterns with LED lights as opposed to lantern string lights that have to be plugged in.) Also if anyone has any ideas about what I could attach the wire to that would be helpful as well. There are a couple tall stairwell structures I can use, but most of the deck just has a low four foot railing. I was thinking about trying to erect a couple tall poles at the corners, but I couldn’t think of how to do it. Thanks!
