In this video, I walk you step-by-step in building Christmas light arches over your driveway. It is an easy way to add an amazing touch to your holiday lighting.
Complete hardware list:
- 8 1 1/4 in pvc pieces for each base
-12 10ft. 3/4in pvc pieces
-6 6ft. 3/4in pvc pieces
-4 3/4in pvc tees
- 4 3/4in pvc 4-way connectors
-Duct Tape (to wrap connections
-Zip Ties
-Christmas Lights (I used 7 boxes of 69 1/2 ft lighted mini lights)

The little helpers definitely came in handy! That is great that you had them involve. These will be great memories they will remember. God bless you all.

Thanks for watching! Oh yeah it definitely makes it a lot of fun for me to include them. They may not remember it when they get older, but hopefully they can look back at some of these videos and see themselves how I see them now. I'm very blessed. God bless you as well!

Would it of been easier to make the arch on the ground then lift it up and put it in the pieces rounded into the ground

I see you added tape to your connections. I struggled last year with the connectors and this year added pipe strapping strips of metal and drilled holes and used thumb screws and nuts which extended the length of the charlotte connectors. I covered them with garland so it doesn't look so industrial during the day

Thank you for watching! Yeah I was really worried about the wind knocking it all down, but it has held up really good. It's been a really nice addition to the display.

How big were your 1 1/4 base pieces and how far did you hammer them in. Did they go straight in or did you have to cut them to points on them.

They were about 2 1/2 feet long and I just hammered them straight in as far as I could. The clay soil where I'm at makes it really hard to hammer anything very deep. I got them in about a foot or so deep. Thank you for watching!

I was ready to build a similar driveway tunnel until I saw FedEx drive up my driveway with their big box truck and realized they'd never fit under the arches. So I had to move my tunnel in the backyard. Way less chance of a FedEx driver running them down.

How well did it hold up?

Everything has held up really good! We had a few days of high winds, but it stayed standing. It was a really awesome addition to the display. My wife did manage to almost take it out a few times backing up out of the driveway, but it's all good!haha thanks for watching!

So no pvc cement, no screws installed. There are no zip ties on top of archers for the lights. Sorry, but I see this crashing down. Good job, though
