Good afternoon

We have some fairy lights for our tent.

We intend to use the 10mm velcro strips to attach to guy lines/ropes but need an idea to attach to the tent material going over the doorway.

So I came across the plastic dummy clips on ebay - has anyone tried using these?

We don't want to mark the tent material so any advice welcome.

many thanks.
