    • Unplug the fairy light before you start working on it!

    • The Silver Balls might have some edges to them. Try to squeeze them into a round shape using your fingers.

    • Use blunt tweezers to bend the little spikes into the right position.

    • When both parts are in a perfect round shape, find a position where they both fit together easily.

    • There might be some spikes that need a little bit more adjusting. Use the blunt tweezer again, if needed.

    • Try to get the spikes very close together.

Enjoy your Fairy Lights!
