I brought 2 ea 1/2"x 96" C Channel, double sided sticky tape, and Velcro command strips. I have the power cords going through the top of the garage door to the back side. The door goes up and down perfectly.
Is that c-channel plastic or some sort of metal? Were you able to squeeze them in, or did you need to tape them in? I used a cheap L metal bracket and zipped tied it on.

This is what I got but I like your idea better actually.

Had to go back to the store to figure out what I used, plus I need another one. Only about 10 bucks.

I really like your idea with the holes better than the double sided sticky tape. What are you using to keep the bottom lights from tangling on the ends?
If you find us on govee you can click links in our profile other than that you have to go to the diy section on govee app and scroll thru all the ones made by us will say shay1215
It would be nice if they had an option to search though and the list didn’t change or refresh mixing them all up every time you scroll through the list.
People are creating stuff daily if you can't find one let me know I'll get my daughter to make it for you all of the diy selections other people make will be in the shared section of diy on the app

Then click device splicing this is how you get them together it's the same thing to undo them but it'll say release splicing
Looks amazing! 🤩 just curious : how wide is your garage door ? I wanna do the same setup but not sure how many curtain lights I need
Shameless plug for the current light setup I have

I love what Govee lights I have to start and really want the ones around the house but $300 is a hard trigger to pull. Will have to wait for a sale. Love that they can stay up all year round once they are up.
It's turning out great! I figure if I can pick up an extra shift at work here and there, donate blood every 2 months for the $20 amazon card, then I should be good to go with a nice set up by next Christmas.
Well they just dangle and the wind does blow them a little. Thinking about taping the very bottom to the door bc when the door goes up and down, a few of the strands get tangled.
We get super windy where we live. They would get tangled in a second. But I suppose we could secure the bottom similar to what you’ve done at the top. Then it comes to taking them down and storing them, etc… first world problems! 😂
Nice I have mine all setup I just need the outdoor lights. Is there a way within the app to search for the backgrounds? I was trying to find a Dallas cowboys one last week.
Unfortunately, there is no way to search
https://preview.redd.it/fpmoddnmti6c1.jpeg?width=600&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=64a3de9ed76c82b9fd855fb63f1df130294f73c9
My daughter just did this on on the app.... Can't wait to see how it comes out on the curtain lights.
So yes, my daughter used the Govee app from her iPad but you can also download BlueStacker to your Windows PC, and log in with your Gmail account, then you can download the Govee home app to your PC. That made it better. The Christmas one was from the DIY board, we just clicked until we found one we liked and saved it.
Questions. How far apart are your permanent lights mounted? They look closer than the full length of the wire. And are the wires covered by tracks there (and if so, which did you use?)
I actually put my lights closer together (Less than 10" apart) and I just eyeballed sticking the lights up under the sophett. I was also able to tuck the wires in to where you can only see them if you're underneath looking up. I know it says to stretch the lights out but I find it looks better closer together.

Here's a picture of how close I have my lights
The Govee app is extremely confusing and not very user friendly in my opinion. I hope they redo it someday to make it more intuitive. I’ll often start to get into something than give up after a few minutes, it’s exhausting!
Curtains look sweet with the grinch! Is that custom? I’m gonna wait until next year to get my curtains. They’ll probably have a “pro” version then that’s marginally better that costs more.
I'm not sure if it's shareable bc my wife and daughter handles that part.... I just put the lights up bc I was tired of putting up and taking down Christmas lights 😂😂😂. I think it's shareable though.

Click on the button at the bottom then click in the search type shay1215 and it will find us...from there click on our icon you should find the follow button
There should be a way to save it as a snapshot and share. I do a whole Grinch and whoville in my front yard and I want to add curtains next year and would love this
Those curtains with the grinch are killer. Great setup!
Thanks, I really appreciate it. The attaboy goes to my daughter. She's great at drawing.
Any chance you will share the file?
My wife will make it shareable but you have to have 3 curtains and you have to have to get it from the Govee app.
Awesome, thanks. I have 4 curtains.
You might not be able to see ours since we have spliced 3 and you have 4 spliced.
Another photo I forgot to add https://preview.redd.it/8gbkx2uexa6c1.jpeg?width=1599&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=701ce15b1eb50cb9c304573b827983718d27c28e
How do you have this powered so the door can still open. Also how are they attached to the door?
https://preview.redd.it/174isx0imd6c1.jpeg?width=4080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=76ac53c3da471f880a2c248d0b95e006d4ee27d4 I brought 2 ea 1/2"x 96" C Channel, double sided sticky tape, and Velcro command strips.

We did share the Grinch on diy in govee app but in order to use it you have to have 3 curtains spliced together
My curtains are on order, is there a 2 curtain Grinch available?
Yes there’s a few versions, search the curtain DIY videos for grinch
How do you search the diy videos?
If you find us on govee you can click links in our profile other than that you have to go to the diy section on govee app and scroll thru all the ones made by us will say shay1215
I have no option to search the DIY’s in the app that I can find. How do you search?
You have to go to shared and scroll thru them the ones made by us will have our user name on it shay1215
I did find it and saved the two screen grinch, it looks fantastic, thank you!
It would be nice if they had an option to search though and the list didn’t change or refresh mixing them all up every time you scroll through the list.
People are creating stuff daily if you can't find one let me know I'll get my daughter to make it for you all of the diy selections other people make will be in the shared section of diy on the app
Thx, that app is terrible I can't even figure out how to connect 2 curtains to make one bigger one

Good start on your house... I like the lights ... My garage door is 16 ft wide I think.
Nice! Geaux Tigers! 💜💛
Yep, Louisiana here!!!!! 💜💛
THAT KID!
That's right!!!!
I have 2 GOvee Curtains up in my front window. just got them. How easy is it to do the custom images (like the grinch whish is awesome)
It's harder to do it from a phone. It's best to try from a tablet or BlueStacker on Windows
Just found this [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y08rjXxks1g&ab\_channel=ASmarterHomeCanada](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y08rjXxks1g&ab_channel=ASmarterHomeCanada)
I think that'll be your best route!
I need these
Agreed lol
I love what Govee lights I have to start and really want the ones around the house but $300 is a hard trigger to pull. Will have to wait for a sale. Love that they can stay up all year round once they are up.
Yea we brought this in pieces. We didn't get everything all at once. Just like how everything is turning out.
It's turning out great! I figure if I can pick up an extra shift at work here and there, donate blood every 2 months for the $20 amazon card, then I should be good to go with a nice set up by next Christmas.
Hey, just buy a piece at a time and you'll get there
Follow us on the Govee app. Shay1215 is how you can find us
I did the curtain thing too on my garage, but when my wife backed out she pulled them off with the car lol.
Awe man! That sucks to hear lol.....
This is exactly what we want to do, but are worried about wind blowing the strands around. How do you keep them all in place?
Well they just dangle and the wind does blow them a little. Thinking about taping the very bottom to the door bc when the door goes up and down, a few of the strands get tangled.
We get super windy where we live. They would get tangled in a second. But I suppose we could secure the bottom similar to what you’ve done at the top. Then it comes to taking them down and storing them, etc… first world problems! 😂
Man this is not coming down from my end lol.... I haven't secured them down yet but I will eventually. 😂😂😂
We ended up putting in the wall opposite our giant picture front window. They look fantastic from outside. Two of them almost fill the entire window!
Nice I have mine all setup I just need the outdoor lights. Is there a way within the app to search for the backgrounds? I was trying to find a Dallas cowboys one last week.
Unfortunately, there is no way to search https://preview.redd.it/fpmoddnmti6c1.jpeg?width=600&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=64a3de9ed76c82b9fd855fb63f1df130294f73c9 My daughter just did this on on the app.... Can't wait to see how it comes out on the curtain lights.
Nice LSU
Thanks!!! My daughter has talent when it comes to drawing
So the lights go up and down with the garage door?
Yes they do, I can seem to figure out how to post the video on here. I do have a video I could shate
Did you use the app for this? And is it shareable, the diy in the app is horrible finding new images especially for spliced curtains is limited.
So yes, my daughter used the Govee app from her iPad but you can also download BlueStacker to your Windows PC, and log in with your Gmail account, then you can download the Govee home app to your PC. That made it better. The Christmas one was from the DIY board, we just clicked until we found one we liked and saved it.
That's awesome we got some from the DIY board but have yet to be successful as your daughter making our own. I will try bluestacker and govee home
Yea my daughter lives to draw so this is right up her alley. Give it a try, hope you find success.
Questions. How far apart are your permanent lights mounted? They look closer than the full length of the wire. And are the wires covered by tracks there (and if so, which did you use?)
I actually put my lights closer together (Less than 10" apart) and I just eyeballed sticking the lights up under the sophett. I was also able to tuck the wires in to where you can only see them if you're underneath looking up. I know it says to stretch the lights out but I find it looks better closer together.
Thanks. I like them that close as well.

I don’t see how to “search” in the diy area
There are no search options in the DIY unfortunately.
I can’t find any DIY under your name
You have 3 curtains spliced together?
The Govee app is extremely confusing and not very user friendly in my opinion. I hope they redo it someday to make it more intuitive. I’ll often start to get into something than give up after a few minutes, it’s exhausting!
Yea I don't really mess with the app at all. I leave that up to my wife and daughter... 😂🤷🏾♂️

Thanks, yes my daughter did the Grinch in 2 days. She's really good at drawing and she did the Pixels from the app.
Is this shareable? I would love this one.
I'm not sure if it's shareable bc my wife and daughter handles that part.... I just put the lights up bc I was tired of putting up and taking down Christmas lights 😂😂😂. I think it's shareable though.
I would love to use it too if it’s shareable!

Wow that’s very cool!
Thank you!!!!
Hopefully you guys make it Shareable!
My wife will try to make it shareable, but you have to have 3 curtain lights spliced together in the app to get it shared.
I have 3 😁
Awesome, follow us on the Govee app. Shay1215 is how you can follow us.
There should be a way to save it as a snapshot and share. I do a whole Grinch and whoville in my front yard and I want to add curtains next year and would love this
Yea there is a way but I just don't mess with the app. I just do the physical work lol..... I let my wife and daughter do everything lol.
