If you find any de-tangler heavy-duty enough to tackle that, let me know! Every year I swear I'm just going to throw them out and buy new again the next year, and then I don't. What a pain those lights are!
That picture frustrates me! Sheri bought a 9' pre-lit Christmas tree about 4 years ago and I love it ... I never complain when I struggle to get it down or take it up into the attic. I opened the container for the out door lights and just closed it up this year ... maybe I'll fell better about messing with them next year.
There is a cool little light "organizer" from the Container Store that I like. But, unfortunately, it doesn't untangle them for you before it twists them around itself. Yes, the lights are a pain in the neck. But they sure were pretty on the tree!!!?
I was born and raised in Van Nuys, California. I moved to Boston sight-unseen and have loved living in New England since that day when I said, "this apartment is OLD". My hobbies are antiquing, reading books and magazines (bring back Blueprint and Domino please), sewing, quilting, sightseeing, watching movies, and photography. I love the color red and have a retro red refrigerator (and kitchen aid mixer and ice cream maker and toaster and...) to prove it! I live in a converted high school and love decorating my loft condo (w/ 18 foot ceilings) that was formerly the auditorium. I have 3 brothers, 11 nieces and nephews, and a bus fleet of friends.

While you are at it, let me know if you find a little dingle bobber that finds the burnt out lights.
