"It was such an easy fix that made putting up my lights so much easier," Weatherbee told Fox News. (Courtesy of Tamara Weatherbee/@tamara_weatherbee)

“It was such an easy fix that made putting up my lights so much easier,” she added.

Weatherbee said she had no clue her video would become so popular.
“I was surprised at how many people didn’t know about this hack,” she said. “I thought since it was such an easy fix maybe a lot of people knew about it. But even some of my close friends this year said ‘why didn’t you tell me this before I set up my Christmas tree?’”
