am i going in the right direction?

[CUFFERS]

I have planned to light up my house this Christmas using lightorama. I have 2 x 240v controllers and 2 x dc boards .

I plan to use dumb rgb led strips round the 6 windows and a 5m mega tree with a Bethlehem star on top with strobes in the tree but I have no idea what to do with the roof line or gutters.

My kids want a leaping arch and a 3 stars on a lighted pole ( sorry forgot the proper name ) and the wife would like a fan

I'm in the UK and I have clay tiles on the roof and don't know how to attach anysort of lights to them

Please help

Just trying to brighten up newton poppleford this year as some have lights up but shop bought ones and no music. Just trying to stand out like the restof you guys over in the us

You could try using adhesive clips (what I plan) but I haven't found anything strong enough yet.

Welcome, my Brother across the pond!

Some sort of adhesive or mechanical clip sound like the best choice for holding lights on your clay tile roof..
