Use projector lights to mimic string lights outside your home. 3. Hire professionals to decorate. 4. Use a spotter at the bottom of your ladder. 5. Don’t rush when you’re on the roof. 6. If you’re older than 60, leave the high decorating for younger people with stronger bones. 7. Save the eggnog for afterward.
