Most of the challenges I have had is with trying to connect strands together. For years I have used these strips:

Last year I upgraded to these ones as the lights "move" in a pattern:

To make them look better; especially in the seasons where I don't have them on, I bought channels from Lee Valley to conceal them:

They do make a significant increase to the cost, but still comes in way cheaper than having them done professionally. I will also say, the professional ones definitely look better; but this at least still keeps the cost within reason and closer to the cost of regular strings of lights.
