Can these be used to anchor down Christmas lawn décor (ie, outdoor tree) so it doesn't blow away in bad weather?

If you're talking about the blow-up kind of decorations or something that needs to be staked out with ropes, you could give them a try. Your success would depend on how much wind you get and how heavy the decoration is as they're not very deep(about 3 inches). You might also try tent stakes

Yes - they will burn well outdoors. Once these are lit and either glowing red on both side - or gray on the outside, these will not blow out and will work great.

I left two outside all winter. We had severe winds often. They are attached to my wood patio awning and a tree. No damage to the wood structure (built like a deck) however one of the shades tore at the corner. The other weathered everything and is still hanging.

Yes these work great outdoors, BUT be aware that the light stands are really light and kinda flimsy so any slight wind will knock over the lights so if you don't other more half duty light stands then having sand bag around will do the trick or anything like sand bags.

Yes. The stakes help prevent them from blowing away. If the location is prone to wind you may want to try weighing them down with a brick or rock.

I don't see why not, they are just like the colored Christmas bulbs, just clear. They are very bright, though, and I'm not sure if they would be suitable for outdoors exposed to wet weather.

Yes. I have done this a number of times. They are made of a soft plastic and can be easily cut and shaped with tin snips, wire cutters or diagonal cutters. FYI: I use outdoor cable ties to secure them to the tree.

No...Don't use outdoors. The shade is not heavy duty....I think outdoor weather might ruin them.

The slightest bit of wind would probably rip them down. They fell down/ripped quite easily for us and we used them indoors. They look nice, you just have to be careful with them.

I would recommend you install metal poles as they won't 'give' as much as the trees I tied mine to. Be aware that certain ropes will loosen and tighten when wet/ dry. We take ours down in the winter as we do not think it good to try to carry snow load.

I doubt they would last in the weather. And the adhesive isn't all that strong. Rope lights are designed for outdoors

I think it could depending on your spacing, they are fairly heavy, but I did have a couple of my torches blow over in a mild wind. As a little extra insurance if possible I would stake them down.

If they are good batteries they should last a year or more, very easy to hang very soft nice light glowing colors I had about 12 of them in my backyard last year, from an awing you might have to use a flexible wire to make a good hook connection however, if a storm comes up with high winds I would take them down or heavy snow The glass panel is easy to wipe off with a soft cloth or I use my finger&#127803;

I would think they could be used outside but may be less effective especially if it rains. Terro makes a product specifically for outside use that I have used and is just as good. They even have spikes to hold them in the ground.

Only if they are very thin strips of paper. But they do come with rubber that hooks around it so it would be very easy to hang from a tree.

You can use super glue or contact cement to secure the end plugs in the roller. We nixed the whole idea of using the tiedowns and house-mounted holders and use a bungie cord to secure the shades to posts in our deck.

I purchased them to anchor plants and would not suggest you use them for keeping out animals, not thick enough or sturdy enough. Use a metal stake with a triangular metal piece at the base you put in the ground for the support you need and long term durability. Good Luck with the animals!
