I used this and another pack with twinkle lights for my son’s Peter Pan first birthday party. I saw other reviewers commented on the smell so I pulled them out a couple days ahead and they definitely had a fishy smell but after leaving them outside for a day to air out the smell was gone. They were nice and hardly dropped any leaves when hanging. They get tangled easy so I would attach to something first and then hang. I tied them to PVC pipe ($5 at any hardware store) which made installation much easier. I had some extra vines so I made a little fairy chandelier out of three of the vines. It turned out super cute!
