System and method to easily install and remove hangers for a string of decorative lights around a house or a tree, while standing on the ground and without the use of a ladder. The system and method are particularly intended for attachment to gutter lips, but could be used to attach light strings to a variety of hard to reach surfaces found on and around buildings. The system is comprised of two components, a hanger clip which holds the light string and which is adapted to be suspended by a gutter or tree branch, for example, and an elongated staff configured at one end to temporarily hold the clip until it can be positioned and attached. The staff and hanger clip are engaged by corresponding locking means configured in each, to selectively and temporarily lock the hanger clip at a desired rotation angle relative to an axis defining the elongated staff. In an exemplary embodiment, the hanger clip is configured to simulate an icicle or ornamental object.
