Abstract
A safety holiday light assembly facilitates installation of holiday lighting to an exterior perimeter of a building from the ground surface. A substantially rigid tube defines a hollow cavity which carries an alignment member comprising a rod and plurality of spheres. Each sphere is detachably affixed via a cantilever to holiday lighting, which is disposed around a perimeter when the alignment member is inserted into the rigid tube. The tube may be color coordinated to match the colors of the building. The tube may form protective seals against external elements.
