Now you have me wanting to track them down. I'll circle back if I find something!

I'm back! I found these for using with string lights.

Are you looking for ones with candle holders? That's what I remember from college.

Thank you, PP. this is the closest to what was thinking for my string lights. We bought a rowhouse with artificial turf and it’s one long piece, so I didn’t want to put a hole in it.

The reason they are secured to the ground is so they don't fly away in the wind. You hoping to zip tie them to your railings?

Maybe just cable tie them to the deck railing? This would just be to temporarily hang some lightweight lights, not have high tension cables or anything.

use cable ties to secure them to the spindles, pole, or railing?

Clip to the side? Probably not. Screw them to something instead.

Exactly. All stick in the ground.

Electric lights or tiki torches?

Most versions I’m seeing stick in the ground. I am looking for some that I could just clip to the side of my deck. Do any exist?
