ABSTRACT:
A Christmas light organizer provides a frame for the handling and storage of a string of Christmas lights. A generally rectangular, planar frame includes two opposing sides having a series of tooth-like projections extending outwardly from the frame which are longitudinally bevelled, having an inner gap between projections at their base which is less than a least thickness of the electric cord and an outer gap at their ends which is greater than the greatest thickness of the electric cord, thereby allowing a Christmas light cord to be inserted and guided between the converging faces of adjacent projections until the cord is securely gripped therebetween. The other two, non-toothed, sides may have one or more sets of divergent, slanted notches intruding from the inner side of the frame and formed so as to hold, at the plug, an end of the electric cord. A handle may extend outwardly from one of the non-toothed sides. Cross braces may be added across the inside of the frame for both strength and safety.
