How do I wrap an outdoor deciduous tree with Christmas lights safely?

I am looking to wrap a 12' dogwood's trunk and branches to get an effect similar to this. But if a max of 3 strands of 100 mini lights connected end to end is the recommendation for safety, how would I configure it? Thanks, Heather

Best answer: Well, you've got a couple of options, but I think your best is to go with LED lights instead of the regular bulbs. They cost way more, but they're less of a hassle and last a lot longer, and they use way less energy... AND they can have up to 43 strands linked together. w00t!

As well as those great ideas above the, limitation you have is 3 strands in series (in a line) - you can can have more than 3 branching off from a common 'hub'. Hard to describe.

Nice idea though.
