Three ways to light a building
Seasonal strands for the holidays, a permanent track for year-round color, and shops that need both on a schedule.

Choosing between them
Can I start with strands and switch to permanent later?
Yes. The measuring visit for one is most of the work for the other, and the estimate says what carries over.
Do you work on a roof with solar panels?
We work around them. Tell us about them when you book so the designer looks at them at the visit.
Can you match the trim on a neighbor's house?
We can match a color and a spacing from a photo. We don't copy a design that someone else paid for.
Not sure which fits your house?
Text a photo of the roofline and we'll say what we would hang, and how.
