There’s nothing more fun than partying outdoors – but it can take that little bit more planning! What if it rains? Is there enough lighting? How does one dress a tree? Questions we’ve all agonised over, right? And anyway, we all know half the fun is in the planning 

Sugru hooks are easy to make yourself, so you can add your personal touch anywhere you choose — whether you’re hanging photographs from a tree for a wedding or fairy lights from a brick wall for a barbecue, this simple idea lets you hang anything… from anything!

It’s the small touches that really bring a space alive (and you know your guests will be impressed with your originality)

Creating a hook is easy and you don’t need much Sugru. (you can make 5 hooks from one sachet – that’s 15 hooks from a 3-pack of Sugru!)

Step 1 – Open a sachet of Sugru and divide the Sugru into 5.

Step 2 – Roll each pea-sized amount of Sugru into a ball – each ball is one hook!

Step 3 – Press the Sugru onto your chosen surface, shape it and curve upwards into a hook.

24 hours later they will be ready for you to add your finishing touches!

We used woody brown for this project, because it blends in nicely with the bark of a tree – it’s almost invisible! And afterwards, you can either remove them or leave it there for another time.

So now you can look forward to your big event safe in the knowledge that your decorations reflect your personality, your friends and your family.

And if you want to frame your space before you place your hooks, tape + cardboard works great.
