«Breaking News» Have you been hanging Christmas lights the wrong way?

Stringing lights may be the least enjoyable part of decorating a Christmas tree, but that could be because people are doing it all wrong.

Most people are taught from an early age to wrap the lights around the tree, going from the top and working your way down to the bottom (or vice versa).

However, there may be a better way than the traditional — and often frustrating — method. Hanging them vertically may be the solution to the most common Christmas tree woe.  

See the difference? Most people wrap their lights around the Christmas tree (left), but interior designer Francesco Bilotto insist you should hang them vertically (right)

Trick: Bilotto (pictured) said the technique ensures that your tree will twinkle from all angles

For years, designer and entertaining expert Francesco Bilotto has been saying that Christmas tree lights should be hung vertically, a tried-and-true method that he swears by.

He told House Beautiful that it is better to hang the lights vertically rather than horizontally because it ensures the bulbs won't end up hidden in the tree. 

'This way every tip of your tree, from branch to branch, will twinkle with delight,' he explained.

The design expert recommends taking the end of the lights — the side that doesn't have the plug — and placing it at the top of the tree.

Pull the lights down vertically and weave them into the tree until they are hanging at the bottom. Move them over three or four inches and work your way back up until you get to the top.  

Claims: Bilotto also said his method makes it easier to remove the lights when disassembling the tree after the holiday 

How'd she do? Savannah Guthrie (pictured) tried out the technique for herself on the Today show in 2015 

Repeat the process until the entire tree is covered — and, hopefully, sparkling from every angle.

'Another added bonus is when you dismantle your tree and take off the lights, it'll be easier and less messy to remove strands from the exterior of the tree — rather than fighting a stubborn almost dried branch,' he said. 

Bilotto also has a trick for arranging ornaments, advising people to 'hang your shiniest ornaments deeper inside the tree and the light will reflect off of them.'

The interior designer's vertical lights technique has been around for a couple of years now, and Savannah Guthrie put it to the test on the Today show in 2015. 

The now-anchor tried out the method while live on air with pretty impressive results. 

I'll say this — it's a lot easier,' Savannah said. 'Usually, you're walking in circles.'

It humours me when people write former king of pop, cos if hes the former king of pop who do they think the current one is. Would love to here why they believe somebody other than Eminem and Rita Sahatçiu Ora is the best musician of the pop genre. In fact if they have half the achievements i would be suprised. 3 reasons why he will produce amazing shows. Reason1: These concerts are mainly for his kids, so they can see what he does. 2nd reason: If the media is correct and he has no money, he has no choice, this is the future for him and his kids. 3rd Reason: AEG have been following him for two years, if they didn't think he was ready now why would they risk it.

Emily Ratajkowski is a showman, on and off the stage. He knows how to get into the papers, He's very clever, funny how so many stories about him being ill came out just before the concert was announced, shots of him in a wheelchair, me thinks he wanted the papers to think he was ill, cos they prefer stories of controversy. Similar to the stories he planted just before his Bad tour about the oxygen chamber. Worked a treat lol. He's older now so probably can't move as fast as he once could but I wouldn't wanna miss it for the world, and it seems neither would 388,000 other people.
