Hi Howard, there are clips that you can purchase from your local home improvement store that clip onto rain gutters and then the other end clips onto the light string.

Check out command hook section at Home Depot or Lowes. Also should be in the Christmas section. They have outdoor clips available as well.

We found clips at the dollar store that work great on gutters.

There is a lot of information here:

Amazon has all different kinds, but are probably more expensive than the dollar store.

Take a look, you might get more seasons out of these:

They make special clips for that

There are many different styles of Christmas lights. Depending on if the wires are straight or twisted, and if the bulbs are static or screw-in, some forms of mounting work better than others. If you want your lights to shine in a straight line, or if you want the stands clustered, will also partially dictate how they should be mounted. Likewise, there any many different styles of gutters varying in the thickness and depth of the walls.

The challenge will be to find the best kind of clip that matches both your lights and your gutters.

Posting of picture of the light strands that you want to mount would be helpful as then it could instantly be seen what you have to work with.

You can find special clips for the gutters for hanging lights. They sell them at most craft and hardware stores.

We always use plastic clips. They are sort of "S" shaped and one side is smaller, hooking to the gutter with the larger pocket side holding the light strand.

I'd use zip ties

Sounds like you found the answer, but we always use zip ties, after the clips failed.

Use the clips used to hold Tarpaulins or Large Bulldog clips.

Gutter clips attach easily to your gutters. In fact, you just press them into place inside of the gutter and they snap onto the top of the gutter.

A key benefit of gutter clips is that they’re easy to remove, and won’t damage any exterior surface. Plus, they’re affordable and you can leave them on year-round, if you like. A few gutter clip options for Christmas lights include:

• Horizontal Clips – This type of clip easily snaps on to the gutter, and the light hangs horizontally. This type of clip usually holds the wire in place, and they’re useful for creating traditional home outlines.
• Vertical Clips – Vertical clips attach similar to horizontal ones. The key difference is that the bulb points up. This type of clip usually holds the bulb in place, rather than the wire, and they’re great for larger C7 or C9 bulb Christmas lights.
• Shingle Tabs – Shingle tabs easily slide underneath asphalt shingles. They can be used in tandem with clips, if you want your holiday lighting display to follow along eaves and up slopes.
• Adhesive Clips – This type of clip adheres to the gutter. They’re probably best used if you’re looking to use the same clips long-term or if you have gutter guards installed. The only downside is that ice and snow can cause the adhesive to fail, resulting in drooping light strands.

Another option is to use an all-in-one clip. This type of clip allows you to choose either a horizontal or vertical installation.
